Renal Angiography

Renal angiography is a medical imaging procedure used to visualize the blood vessels in the kidneys. A special dye is injected into your bloodstream, which makes the blood vessels visible on X-ray images. This allows doctors to detect abnormalities such as blockages, narrowing, or aneurysms in the renal arteries. The procedure helps in diagnosing conditions like hypertension caused by kidney issues or evaluating blood flow before surgery. It is minimally invasive, typically performed in a hospital setting, and provides detailed information to guide appropriate treatment.
