图示：轻度冠状动脉粥样硬化。一些散在淡黄色的脂斑分布于已剖开的冠状动脉内膜面，冠状动脉走行于心脏外膜表面。冠状动脉这种粥样硬化的程度，还不足以引起疾病，但可能是动脉粥样硬化恶化的先兆。
This is mild coronary atherosclerosis. A few scattered yellow lipid plaques are seen on the intimal surface of the opened coronary artery traversing the epicardial surface of a heart. The degree of atherosclerosis here is not significant enough to cause disease, but could be the harbinger of worse atherosclerosis to come.
