What is an Angiography?

Angiography is a medical imaging procedure used to check the blood vessels from inside. Mainly look for arteries and heart chambers. This process is done by injecting a contrast agent into the blood vessel and imaging using X-ray-based methods.

Why do we do an Angiography?

When blood vessels are blocked, damaged, or abnormal in any way, chest pain, stroke, heart attack, or other problems may occur. Angiography helps your doctor determine the origin of the problem and the size of damage to the blood vessel segments that are being examined.

Types of angiography:

There are many different types of angiographies, depending on which part of the body is being looked at. Common types of angiographies include:

  1. Coronary Angiography: It is an invasive test performed in hospitals to look for narrowings or blockages in the blood vessels that supply the heart. If a narrowing or blockage of blood vessels is found that appears suitable, your cardiologist may proceed to perform angioplasty.
  2. CT Coronary Angiography: CT angiography or computed tomography is an X-ray technology to create high-resolution, 3-D images of your heart. A CT coronary angiography is one type of cardiac CT, concentrating on the arteries that supply the blood to your heart muscle.
  3. Peripheral Angiography: Peripheral angiography is a test done by using X-rays and contrast dye to help cardiologists find blocked or narrowed areas in one or more of the arteries that supply blood to your feet, legs, or in some chances, your arms, and hands. The test is also named extremity angiography.
  4. Renal Angiography: Renal angiography is an imaging test to examine the blood vessels in your kidneys. Your doctor can use it to see the ballooning of a blood vessel, narrowing of a blood vessel, or blockages in a blood vessel.
  5. Cerebral Angiography: A cerebral angiography test is used to image the blood vessels of the brain. The procedures do not vary markedly, but there is a more extensive path to follow through the vascular system to reach these areas.
