Medical - Medical: Cardiology / Angiogram results
Hebrew term or phrase: זרימה קולטרלית
This is a heading in a section about angiogram results.
Underneath it are the words מאין and איכות, which also don't make sense to me in this context.
There are no values written in under that field.
Thanks in advance!

collateral flow


Explanation:
If circulation failure occurs, some small vessels may start providing part of the required flow. So, מאין means "where from" and "איכות", as far as I understand, means degree to which these small vessels substitute the normal flow.

neutral  boostrer: It may be other vessels, not only coronary ones. \\ It depends on the context, which we dont have; collateral flow occurs and can be measured in peripheral vessels, brain arteries, etc.
