This two week course on Arterial Pollution covered the field of
atherosclerosis as a disease entity, and includes its anatomical,
physiopathological, epidemiologic, preventi ve and therapeutic
aspects. With the cooperation of an outstanding group of inter
national lecturers we have been able to present an overview of the
disease and its accidents as it stands today. Such a scope differs
greatly from the narrow workshops which only consider biochemical
disorders, e.g., the lipoproteins or the risk factors. We believe
it was timely to study the entire physiopa thological entity of
arterial pollution and we included all aspects of the disease in
one single sweep. We are grateful to the Nato Advanced Institute
Programs for accepting this topic on the list of their sponsored
initiatives and especially Mr. di Lullo for his personal care.
Whether we succeeded was proved by the audience to the Nato
Advanced Study Institute at Maratea in September 1981 and will
become clearer through the audience these proceedings will gain in
the medical community. H. Peeters, editor A. Gresham, R. Paoletti,
