Abstract

Cardiovascular disease is responsible for more deaths in women each year than all other causes combined. Women have different cardiac presentations than men and are more likely to be underdiagnosed and undertreated for coronary artery disease. This article addresses genderspecific issues in prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of coronary artery disease.
