Is this the 1st, as opposed to the 2nd, branch of the ramus diagonalis?

English translation:(central) strong diagonal branch
Explanation:
Unless the report provides more information somewhere else, we do not know the number of diagonal branches the patient has. Based on the below reference, there may be often 2 to 9 of them, the 1st one usually being the most prominent. I would therefore translate literally.

"Diagonal branches of the left anterior descending coronary artery supply blood flow to the anterior and anterolateral walls of the left ventricle. There are usually denoted as D1, D2, D3, etc.

"There are termed "diagonal" due to them branching from their parent vessel at acute angles. They extend over the left ventricle in a diagonal fashion toward the acute margin and the cardiac apex. They often run parallel to one another and are variable in number (often 2 to 9)... The first diagonal (D1) branch tends to be the most prominent. When the first diagonal is large, the other diagonal vessels tend to be small and run a shorter course."

Thank you for your answer and for confirming that it means "with a large diameter".
I used "strong". I suppose it could be called the "major" branch - or "most prominent", as your link says.
