Coronary Angiography
Coronary Angiography is a medical imaging technique used to visualize the blood vessels of the heart. It involves injecting a special dye into the coronary arteries through a thin tube called a catheter. This dye makes the arteries visible on X-ray images, allowing doctors to assess blood flow and identify any blockages or narrowing.
The procedure is typically performed in a hospital setting and may be done under local anesthesia. Coronary Angiography helps diagnose conditions like coronary artery disease and guides treatment options, such as angioplasty or stent placement, to improve heart health.
