Curved multiplanar reformatted images of the left main and left anterior descending (a), left circumflex and terminal obtuse marginal branch (b), and right coronary arteries (c). There is an abrupt occlusion of the mid obtuse marginal branch (arrow) without significant coronary artery disease, suggesting that the coronary obstruction was likely embolic in etiology.
