What it is?
Angiography is a diagnostic procedure used to visualize blood vessels and identify blockages or abnormalities using X-rays and a contrast dye.

How it’s done
A catheter is inserted into a blood vessel, typically in the wrist or groin, and guided to the area being examined. Contrast dye is injected, making the blood vessels visible under X-ray imaging.

What are the benefits?

• Accurate diagnosis of blocked or narrowed arteries
• Helps plan treatment options like angioplasty or bypass surgery
• Minimally invasive with quick recovery

What are the risks and how to avoid them?

• Infection, bleeding, or bruising at the insertion site
• Allergic reaction to the contrast dye
• Blood vessel damage (rare)
  Risk reduction: Proper sterilization, monitoring for allergic reactions, and careful catheter insertion minimize complications.
