Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases in Ukraine amount to 65.8% of deaths. The part of their prevalence and incidence in the structure of diseases among the population is 31.5% and 7.4%, but it reaches 52.1% and 20% among people of retirement age. Cardiovascular diseases include myocardial infarction, stroke, and aneurysm of vessels. Calcified plaques on artery walls that prevent normal blood supply of the myocardium and brain are the most common causes of heart attack and stroke. Calcification of vessels may cause their aneurism. In particular, the presence of abdominal aortic aneurism during a year can be a cause of a sudden death. That‘s why the study of the research methods of calcifications, their composition and the process of depositing in the wall of blood vessels are topical.
