Angiography is a type of heart test that a cardiologist or Heart surgeon suggests to check the condition of Heart and to decide which treatment will be the best for his patient. Basically, it is an imaging test used to examine the blocked, enlarged or deformed arteries or veins in the body.
Coronary Angiograph is an X-ray of the arteries in the heart. It helps in viewing how blood flows in the arteries.
How Coronary Angiography is done?
Coronary Angiography is done using a thin flexible tube called Catheter. Through catheter a liquid dye is inject into the desired artery. The point from where the catheter is drawn can be arm or groin. This point is cleaned and numbed with a local anesthesia. Then the hollow tube called catheter is induced into the artery and the dye injected show the flow of blood on the X-ray. Wherever there is a blockage or narrowing blood vessel, it shows on the X-ray. The whole process took nearly 30 to 60 minutes.
