What is coronary angiography? <br />Coronary angiography is a method of examining the coronary arteries. <br /><br />A radiopaque agent is injected into each coronary artery after the catheter has been inserted into the aorta. <br /><br />The examination is done on an empty stomach. <br /><br />The duration of the procedure is 20-90 minutes. <br /><br />Some patients may experience allergic reactions to the injected chemical. <br /><br />This research method allows diagnosing coronary artery disorders (myocardial infarction, angina pectoris), recurrence of narrowing due to atherosclerosis, <br /><br />assessing their severity and prescribing coronary bypass surgery (if necessary). <br /><br />#angiography #coronary #Coronaryangiography #Myocardialinfarctionangiography #coronaryarteries #coronaryarterydisease #coronaryarterydiseasepathophysiology #coronarycirculation #myocardialinfarction #diagnosingcoronaryartery
