babbu5508 - 03-15-11 11:08 The correct answer is C. This fact is obviously clinically relevant: in one quarter of patients with ischemic heart disease, the "presenting" symptom is death! This makes a very good case for aggressive screening of any patient groups at relatively high risk for atherosclerosis.
