CTA (Computed Tomography Angiography)

Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA) is an imaging technique that combines X-ray technology and computer processing to create detailed pictures of blood vessels in the body. During a CTA procedure, a contrast dye is usually injected into a vein to highlight the blood vessels, allowing doctors to see them clearly on the images. This method is often used to diagnose conditions such as blockages, aneurysms, or other vascular diseases. It's a non-invasive way to gather important information about the health of the circulatory system, helping guide treatment decisions.
