Definition

Antoine Micheau

The acute marginal artery in coronary angiography is defined as a branch of the right coronary artery (RCA) that courses along the acute margin of the right ventricle and supplies the right ventricular free wall. It is typically visualized as one or more prominent branches arising from the RCA, most often in its proximal or mid segment.
