The main idea is identifying the term for a blood clot that forms inside a coronary artery. When a clot develops in a coronary artery, that clot is called a coronary thrombosis. It describes the actual blockage created by the clot. If this blockage prevents blood from reaching a part of the heart muscle, it can lead to a myocardial infarction (a heart attack) due to the resulting tissue damage. Angina is chest pain from temporarily reduced blood flow, not the clot itself. An aneurysm is a widening of a weakened artery wall, not a clot.
