Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the Veteran's claim for service connection for a heart condition to obtain an adequate medical opinion that addresses all diagnosed conditions and their potential relationship to the Veteran's service, including any toxic exposure risk activities.
The deciding factor: The previous VA examination was inadequate as it did not address all of the Veteran's diagnosed heart conditions or their possible relation to his service, particularly in light of a TERA involving radiation exposure.
