It was not the nuclear type test. From what I now understand, artery blockage can be huge with little symptoms, and contrast dye is the only sure way to find out. I'm assuming the medical side would have a huge problem to deal with if everyone with blockage = > 75 % was known. I assume many will live a full life and die of other causes.
A 42 Y.O. co-worker some years back in seeming good shape, not over-weight , but terrible diet . The job can be extremely stressful to some personalty types. He was feeling sick ( this guy rarely called in sick) so went home sick. Never made it, Was on the phone with his wife while driving home. Phone disconnected. He was found in his wrecked car, single vehicle collision into utility pole. Was DOA at the emergency room. Autopsy revealed cause of death was coronary , not trauma from the wreck. Left a wife and 5 children
