Angiography By: M.Abid (EE-01083-250) Irfan-ullah(EE-01083-247)
2
Angiography The term “angiography” is composed of two part: angeion : vessel(artery, vein etc ) graphy : record Angiography(arteriography)is a medical technique to diagnose or healing of the arteriosclerosis or other cardiovascular disease Two important procedure of angiography is catheter angiography & angioplasty
3
Angiography An angiograhy is also called arteriogram, is an invasive diagnostic test that uses X-RAYS to take pictures of your blood vessels. A long flexible catheter is inserted through the blood stream to deliver dye (contrast agent) into the arteries making them visible on the X-RAYS. This test helps to diagnose the stroke,tumor,clots and arterial stenosis.
4
Angiography Angiography was first performed by a Portuguese physician whose name was “Egas Moniz” It was done in 1927.
5
A ngiography An angiogram uses a radiopaque (radiation can ‟ t pass through it) substance, or dye, to make the blood vessels visible under x ray. this substance is named as “contrast media”. X-ray is not able to move across contrast media so it makes shadow in the image and if the vessel have stenosis (being narrow), it will be seen. In angiography, we take a lot of picture per a second,so we have a data like movie.
6
Angiography to look at the left side of the heart and the arterial system we use the femoral artery to look at the right side of the heart and the venous system we use the jugular or femoral vein in order to diagnose the problem by cardiologist,The final data will copy on CD

Angiography
9
There are several type of angiography that can be performed for different organs and by different technique but here, we discuss about catheter angiography and angioplasty. For example there are micro angiography, neurovascular angiography and peripheral angiography.
10
Coronary catheterization It is a diagnostic test We can diagnose cardiac disease through it a physician guides a small tube-like device called a catheter, typically ~2.0mm in diameter, through the large arteries of the body until the tip is just within the opening of one of the coronary arteries blood pressures are monitored through the catheter to verify that the catheter does not block blood flow
11
Catheter designed to be radiodense for visibility through vessels By it, we can inject the contrast media Has a sensor for monitor the blood pressure
12
Catheter
14
Angioplasty It is a therapeutic procedure By this, we can prevent the heart attach in result of artheriosclerosis We insert a stent and a balloon by catheter Stent is extended by balloon in the place of stenosis Extension of stent keep the blood open
15
How does angioplasty done?
16
Catheter and balloon

Please don,t be cardiac patient…
