    This document describes the localization of different areas of the heart based on which coronary artery supplies them and which leads on an EKG would show changes if that area was ischemic. It outlines that the right coronary artery typically supplies the inferior wall and right ventricle septal wall, seen in leads II, III, aVF, V1-V2, while the left anterior descending artery supplies the anterior wall seen in leads V3-V4 and the left circumflex artery supplies the lateral wall seen in leads V5-V6. It also provides details on variations in arterial supply between individuals.

    Localization: Left Coronary Artery

    Right Coronary Artery

    Left Main Lateral Wall = L1, AVL Left Circumflex Lateral Wall = V5,V6

    Right Ventricle Septal Wall = V1, V2 Left Anterior Descending Artery

    Anterior Wall of Left Ventricle = V3, V4

    Localization: Right Coronary Artery

    Lateral Wall Left Coronary Artery Right Coronary Artery Posterior Descending Artery Left Ventricle Posterior Wall = Mirror image changes V1, V2 Inferior Wall of left ventricle = L2, L3, AVF

    Location
    Inferior Wall Septal Wall Anterior Wall High Lateral Wall Lateral Wall

    Coronary Artery
    80-90% of Pop = RCA 10-20% of Pop = LCA

    Leads
    II, III, aVF V1, V2 V3, V4 I, aVL V5, V6

    LAD LAD LCA; Circumflex Branch LCA; Circumflex Branch RCA or LCA; Circumflex Branch

    Posterior Wall: Usually seen with RVI or Inferior Wall

    Larger R waves and ST seg depression in V1,V2. May have inverted Ts
