Coronary Angiography

Coronary Angiography is a specialized diagnostic procedure used to check blockages or narrowing in the heart’s blood vessels. It helps your cardiologist understand the exact condition of your coronary arteries and plan the right treatment for you.

What Is Coronary Angiography?

Coronary Angiography is performed using a contrast dye and X-ray imaging (Cath Lab). The dye highlights the coronary arteries, allowing the doctor to see any blockages or abnormalities in real time.

Why Is It Done?

  • Chest pain or heaviness
  • Breathlessness
  • Suspected heart block
  • Abnormal ECG or stress test
  • Previous heart attack symptoms

Benefits of Coronary Angiography

  • Accurate detection of artery blockages
  • Helps decide if angioplasty or bypass is needed
  • Quick, safe, and minimally invasive
  • Immediate results for faster treatment
  • Improves long-term heart health

How the Procedure Works

  • A thin catheter is inserted through the wrist or groin
  • Dye is injected into the arteries
  • X-ray images evaluate blood flow and blockages
  • Procedure takes 15–30 minutes
  • Most patients go home the same day

A Safe & Effective Heart Test

Coronary Angiography is one of the most reliable tests to diagnose heart artery problems early and prevent major cardiac events.
