But doctors have many tools to work with...perhaps an MRI of the heart might have shown the plaque that was growing inside the cardiac artery for Mr. Russert’s heart..That piece of plaque was between the inner and outer walls of that particular artery and may have shown on an MRI...

No doubt more could have been done, but that’s kinda Monday morning quarterbacking.

I’m intensely interested in bio, but would drive myself crazy if I was a doctor.

To be constantly torn between the idea of individual care and what was best for the group.
That would be way too much for me.

I’ll stick with computers. I can fix computers!

Perhaps the plaque ruptured and the body thought it was bleeding to death so it sent the blood clotting essentials to the the area to stop it, but instead a blood clot was formed resulting in death.
