Cerebral Angiography

Cerebral angiography is a medical imaging procedure used to visualize the blood vessels in the brain. It involves injecting a contrast dye into the blood vessels through a thin tube called a catheter, which is usually inserted into an artery in the groin or arm. X-rays are then taken, allowing doctors to see the flow of blood and identify any abnormalities, such as blockages, aneurysms, or malformations. This technique is crucial for diagnosing and planning treatment for various neurological conditions, ensuring proper blood supply to the brain and improving patient outcomes.
