English term or phrase: Vascular Disease
I need to translate the sentence "To investigate the associations of exercise capacity and muscle strength in late adolescence with risk of vascular disease and arrhythmia" into formal, academic German. For the term "vascular disease" I have found "Gefäßkrankheit" and "Angiopathie". Which would you consider more accurate/more appropriate for a formal context?

Thank you.
