vascular pathology

Vascular pathology involves disorders affecting blood vessels, such as arteries and veins. These conditions can include atherosclerosis (buildup of fats and plaques that narrow arteries), aneurysms (weakened vessel walls that can bulge or rupture), and blood clots. Such issues can restrict blood flow, leading to problems like heart attacks, strokes, or limb ischemia. Understanding vascular pathology helps in diagnosing, preventing, and managing vascular diseases, which are major causes of illness worldwide. Proper vascular health relies on lifestyle choices, early detection, and treatment to maintain healthy blood vessels and ensure efficient circulation.
