Florida, USA @ BranShea: Thanks for the link. Now, if I could only work up the energy to use it.
Meanwhile, it looks as though "atherosclerosis" is a subset of "arteriosclerosis," the latter of which (apparently) may have more than its most famous and cholesterolic cause.

That would be the president that just had a medical check that showed a slightly elevated cholesterol reading.

Worcester, MA An important factor in whether you pay the price for your dietary indiscretions sooner, rather than later, is how carefully you chose your parents.

Atherosclerosis emphasizes the material that clogs the vessels, a whitish, cheesy stuff officially called "atheroma."
Arteriosclerosis emphasizes the place where the clog is, namely the arteries.
As commonly used, there's a huge overlap between the two conditions.
