It's also known as ischemic heart disease or coronary artery disease. A heart attack may be the initial sign of CAD in some patients. You and your health-care team may be able to help lower your risk of coronary artery disease. Plaque buildup in the walls of the arteries that carry blood to the heart (called coronary arteries) and other regions of the body causes coronary artery disease (CAD).
