 Angioprim, cardiovascular cleansing by oral chelation
Angioprim helps re-establish the hormone balance responsible for the balancing act between contraction and relaxation of arterial walls and promoting the free flow of blood.
Angina (or Angina pectoris) is chest and arm pain that is a warning, indicating your heart isn't getting enough oxygen because critical arteries are blocked with plaque.
Extensive Medical research and testing has verified the effectiveness.

 EMBOL.HTM
Complications are slight when the treatment is carried out by experienced hands, since the major risk is the embolization of an artery destined for the spinal cord and the precautions mentioned previously fortunately mean that this risk is rare.
An angiographic cartography is highly desirable with the aim of locating the anterior or posterior spinal artery before any embolization treatment.
They can also relate to primitive lesions considered to be hemorrhagic during surgical approach (Tumours with giant cells, vertebral angiomas, benign osteoblastomas, aneurismal bone cysts).

 SCIschmia
The patient was treated by surgical ligation of the fistula through an anterior transthoracic approach.
The anatomy of the spinal arterial and venous systems explain many of the symptoms and causes of spinal cord ischemia, a condition that affects thousands of people world wide.
Spinal angiomas include capillary telangiectasias with extra- or intradural and, rarely, intramedullary location, cavernomas, mainly arising in vertebral bodies, venous angiomas, mainly located in vertebral bodies and in the extradural space, and AVMs constituting the commonest type, that may affect both the pial and radicular vessels and can penetrate into the cord.

You are given a local anesthetic, the artery is punctured, and a needle is inserted into the artery.
A catheter (a long, narrow, flexible tube) is inserted through the needle and into the artery.
If the contrast dye flows out of the blood vessel, it may indicate internal bleeding.

 A New Theoretical Approach to the Cause and Treatment of Lou Gehrig's Disease
Inside the skull the first branches off the Vertebral Arteries are a pair of Posterior Spinal Arteries that nourish the back one third of the lower brain stem and upper spinal cord.
The Brain Stem and upper spinal cord are the only connection between the front two-thirds of our brain and the rest of our body.
  Therefore, the brain stem and the upper spinal cord are entirely dependent on the Vertebral Arteries for their well being and survival.

 Medical Massage and Hypertension
There are three major mechanisms which practitioners should use to help patients with hypertension: balancing the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions of the autonomic nervous system, vasodilating the vertebral arteries, and reducing peripheral vascular resistance.
First, I want to quickly review how methods of Medical Massage therapy affect the arterial blood pressure in patients with EH.
However, if a patient develops hypertension as a result of the pathological abnormalities we discussed above, Medical Massage therapy can play a critical role in the control of the arterial hypertension.

 Vertebral Artery Compression Resulting From Head Movement: A Possible Cause of the Sudden Infant Death Syndrome -- ...
The vertebral arteries of some infants can be compressed by neck movement.
The prone sleeping position forces infants to rotate or extend their necks to clear their noses from bedding, which causes vertebral artery compression.

 COCA - September 2003 Newsletter: Premanipulative Screening of Vertebral Arteries using Doppler Velocimetry
Furthermore, there is substantial indirect evidence to suggest that Doppler velocimetry is a valid, reliable and practical method for practitioners of spinal manipulation to screen the vertebral arteries of their patients.
In the past, screening procedures have been used to test vertebral arteries (VAs) prior to cervical manipulation, in order to reduce the risk of strokes that have a temporal relationship with neck manipulation.
Detection of rotational (or other positional) stenosis, therefore could provide an indirect assessment of the mechanical stresses that are being applied to the artery during neck movement.

 Vertebral Basilar Insufficiency
While less common than strokes associated with carotid stenosis, strokes of the vertebral basilar system affect those parts of the brain associated with basic bodily functions like breathing.
Strokes secondary to VBI are bi-lateral, that is, they affect both sides of the body.
VBI has also been reported as a result of vertebro-basilar dissection, or tearing of the vertebral or basilar arteries, which may occur as a result of a genetic pre-disposition such as fibro-muscular dysplasia (a disease of blood vessels that causes narrowings, or stenoses, and balloonings or aneurysms), trauma, accident or even chiropractic manipulation.

 Power Doppler Ultrasound to Image the Vertebral Arteries
The purpose of our study was to assess usefulness of PDI technique in visualization of vertebral artery course and to assess its utility in the detecting spondylotic vertebral artery compression in patients with vertebrobasilar insufficiency (VBI).
PDI technique was employed as vertebral artery mapping for precise PW-Doppler range gate placing.

 Gray's Anatomy - The Aorta - Yahoo! Reference
Lastly, the number of trunks from the arch may be increased to five or six; in these instances, the external and internal carotids arise separately from the arch, the common carotid being absent on one or both sides.
In some few cases six branches have been found, and this condition is associated with the origin of both vertebral arteries from the arch.
Of these the most common are the bronchial, one or both, and the thyreoidea ima; but the internal mammary and the inferior thyroid have been seen to arise from this vessel.

 PERCUTANEOUS ANGIOPLASTY OF VERTEBRAL AND SUBCLAVIAN ARTERIES
PURPOSE: Retrospective analysis of hospital techniques and results and clinical six months follow-up in patients treated with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) showing severe stenosis of vertebral and subclavian arteries.
All patients successfully treated were asymptomatic at discharge and remained asymptomatic at clinical 6 months follow-up.
CONCLUSION: 1- Endovascular treatment of   subclavian and vertebral arteries were not frequent among extracardiac procedures.

The doctor continued, saying that the fractures did not appear to be affecting the spinal cord, but was unsure yet whether the fractures were impinging the main blood supplies to the brain, the vertebral arteries.
In the end, I was told my injuries included three spinal fractures in my neck (C3, C4, and Tl), a very serious grade-three concussion, vertebral ligament damage, stretching of the brachial plexus nerves, along with the stitched-up facial cuts I was already well aware of.
We were going to have to do another test to find out.

 NDI Terminology - vertebral arteries
Branches : transverse part : spinal and muscular rami ; intracranial part : anterior spinal artery and posterior inferior cerebellar artery and its branches.
The vertebral artery is divided into four parts: the first or prevertebral part ( pars prevertebralis), the second or atlantal part ( pars atlantica), the third or transverse part ( pars transversaria), and the fourth or intracranial part ( pars intracranialis).
