Features of the affection of coronary arteries according to the data of selective coronary angiography (SCAG) and multispiral computer tomography (MSCT) of aboriginal and alien population of Yakutia are evaluated. The results of SCAG and MSCT of patients suffering from verified aterosclerosis of coronary arteries (n = 568) were analyzed. It was established that, according to the SCAG data, constriction of the diameter of coronary arteries by 50-75 % and single-vascular affection occur in aboriginal nationalities in the Republic of Sakha more frequently, while the constriction of the diameter of coronary arteries by more than 90 % and affection of three and more coronary arteries occur more rarely than in aliens. It was demonstrated that the medium level of calcium index according to the MSCT data is lower in aboriginal population in comparison with alien population.
