Ask A Heart Surgeon: The BIG Myth About Soft vs Hard Plaque In Your Arteries
I’m Dr. Michael Richman a double board certified cardiothoracic surgeon. In today’s video, I explain why soft plaque in your coronary(heart) arteries doesn't always turn to calcium and how statins change plaque composition, not just harden it. At the end of the video, I discuss the practical implications regarding treatment.
