Image for CT coronary angiography

CT coronary angiography

CT Coronary Angiography is a medical imaging technique used to visualize the coronary arteries, which supply blood to the heart. During the procedure, a contrast dye is injected, and a CT scanner takes detailed images of the heart and arteries. This helps doctors assess for blockages or narrowing caused by conditions like coronary artery disease. It is a non-invasive alternative to traditional catheter-based angiography and can provide critical information for diagnosing heart issues while minimizing recovery time and discomfort.
