Journal Article
NICKOLAY, T., NICHOLS, S., INGLE, L. and HOYE, A. 2020. Exercise training as a mediator for enhancing coronary collateral circulation: a review of the evidence. Current cardiology reviews [online], 16(3), pages 212-220. Available from: http://dx.doi.org/10.2174/1573403X15666190819144336

Coronary collateral vessels supply blood to areas of myocardium at risk after arterial occlusion. Flow through these channels is driven by a pressure gradient between the donor and the occluded artery. Concomitant with increased collateral flow is an...
