Consultant Physician , Diabetologist & Cardiologist in Meerut
Coronary Angiography is a minimally invasive diagnostic procedure used to visualize the coronary arteries—the blood vessels that supply the heart muscle with oxygen and nutrients. This procedure is crucial for identifying blockages or narrowing in the arteries that could lead to heart conditions such as angina, heart attacks, or other cardiovascular complications.
During the procedure, a special dye that is visible on X-ray images is injected into the coronary arteries through a catheter. The X-ray images, known as angiograms, help Dr. Sharma assess the flow of blood and identify any blockages or abnormalities.
Dr. Sharma performs Coronary Angiography with precision and care. The procedure typically begins with local anesthesia at the catheter insertion site, usually in the wrist or groin. A thin, flexible tube called a catheter is then guided through the blood vessels to the coronary arteries. Once the catheter is in place, the contrast dye is injected, and X-ray images are taken.
The entire procedure usually takes about 30 to 60 minutes, and patients may be observed for a short period afterward to ensure there are no immediate complications. Most patients can return to normal activities within a day or two.
