A member asked:

Soft plaques at the proximal right coronary artery causing 30% luminal (phenobarbital) stenosis. what does thid mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Plaques: It means you have plaque in your coronary artery not obstructing flow a lot. It means aggressive diet, exercise, not smoking, BP control, lipid control, diabetes control all should be done to minimize progression of the plaque. Aspirin is also a good idea.
