Atherosclerosis literally means the hardening of the arteries. In coronary atherosclerotic disease, this process takes place in the coronary arteries of the heart. These are the arteries that supply blood to the heart itself. They supply the heart with the oxygen that it needs, so it can then supply blood and oxygen to all the tissues and organs of the body. The coronary arteries also supply blood to the parts of the heart that make it contract and pump blood, as explained by Elizabeth Corwin, Ph.D.
