Czech term

silný RD

Czech to English Medical Medical: Cardiology
Dále bylo ve středním silném RD difuzní postižení tepny se stenózou do 60%.

Is this the 1st, as opposed to the 2nd, branch of the ramus diagonalis?
Proposed translations (English)
4 +1 (central) strong diagonal branch

Dylan Edwards (asker) Nov 4, 2022:
OK. Probably best to stay safe and literal!
Elizabeth Spacilova Nov 4, 2022:
I think you're inferring too much Yes, usually D1 is the strongest. But this might not be the case here. I'd stick with how the doctor has described it.
Dylan Edwards (asker) Nov 4, 2022:
I note also the use of the word "slabých" in this link. What's all this "silný" and "slabý"?
Dylan Edwards (asker) Nov 4, 2022:
There's this link for example - maybe it's the only example! - that led me to believe that perhaps "silný RD" means "RD1":

silný ramus diagonalis [RD1] s významnou stenózou ihned za odstupem z RIA; ramus circumflexus [RCx]: proximální uzávěr za odstupem dvou slabých rami marginales sin. [RMS], dvě silné marginální větve plněny kolaterálami;

Elizabeth Spacilova Nov 4, 2022:
descriptions I would translate it as the doctor has written it - not designating which diagonal branch it is. --> "in the middle strong diagonal branch".
Dylan Edwards (asker) Nov 4, 2022:
They're talking about arteries here. Also: "...emergentní SKG s průkazem asymetrické léze proximální RIA charakteru intramurálního hematomu s přechodem do silného RD".
Ivan Šimerka Nov 4, 2022:
RD = Redonův drén?

(central) strong diagonal branch

Unless the report provides more information somewhere else, we do not know the number of diagonal branches the patient has. Based on the below reference, there may be often 2 to 9 of them, the 1st one usually being the most prominent. I would therefore translate literally.

"Diagonal branches of the left anterior descending coronary artery supply blood flow to the anterior and anterolateral walls of the left ventricle. There are usually denoted as D1, D2, D3, etc.

"There are termed "diagonal" due to them branching from their parent vessel at acute angles. They extend over the left ventricle in a diagonal fashion toward the acute margin and the cardiac apex. They often run parallel to one another and are variable in number (often 2 to 9)... The first diagonal (D1) branch tends to be the most prominent. When the first diagonal is large, the other diagonal vessels tend to be small and run a shorter course."

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thank you for your answer and for confirming that it means "with a large diameter". I used "strong". I suppose it could be called the "major" branch - or "most prominent", as your link says. "

silny = strong?

Note from asker:
Yes, they call it the 'strong' RD.

Diagonal branches

"All of the anterior left ventricular branches are called diagonal when there are more than two, when these are parallel to each other and when they course towards the acute margin and the apex (They are labeled D1, D2, etc.)"
See fig. 8.20 for image of heart with 5 diagonals
