Coronary angiography is a test that shows how blood flows through the arteries that supply the heart. It helps doctors find narrowing or blockages and decide on the right treatment.
At Pulse Hospital, Bhagalpur, angiography is performed in the hospital's Philips flat-panel cardiac catheterisation lab. Transradial angiography – done through an artery in the wrist – is performed routinely at affordable rates.
How angiography is done
A thin, flexible tube (catheter) is passed through an artery in the wrist (transradial) or groin up to the heart. A contrast dye is injected and X-ray images record how it flows through the coronary arteries. The procedure is usually done under local anaesthesia, and your doctor will explain how to prepare beforehand.
Why your doctor may advise angiography
Angiography may be recommended to investigate:
- Chest pain or angina
- An abnormal ECG, Echo or TMT result
- A suspected or recent heart attack
- Planning for angioplasty
After the test
Your cardiologist will discuss the findings with you. If a significant blockage is found, treatment options such as medicines or angioplasty will be explained so you can make an informed decision.
