Coronary Arteriography (Angiography)

Indications of Coronary Angiogrpahy :

  • Severe symptoms despite optimal medical therapy.
  • intracardiac tumor, mass or thrombus (6 to 8 percent each),
  • native valvular disease, aortic dissection or aneurysm,
  • and congenital heart disease (4 percent)
  • r cardiac sources of embolism (36 percent),
  • endocarditis (14 percent), prosthetic heart valve function (12 percent),
  • Patients for PC! (percutaneous coronary inter­vention) or CABG (Coronary artery bypass sur­gery)
  • Diagnostic test for troublesome symptoms Patients with CAD who have been resuscitated. Signs of severe ischemia on noninvasive test­ing.
  • Aortic Stenosis or HOCM -hypertrophic obstruc­tive cardiomyopathy with angina to rule out cause, or before valve replacement in AS
  • High-risk patients after acute MI
  • Other causes of Myocardial Ischemia, suspeCted Kawasaki or coronary artery anomaly.
