About Coronary Angiography

Coronary angiography is an essential medical procedure that allows doctors to see how blood flows through the coronary arteries supplying the heart. At the (variable location) Topmed Medical Center, this test helps identify blockages or narrowings that can cause chest pain or lead to serious heart problems. During the procedure, contrast dye is injected into the arteries to make them visible on X-ray images, clearly showing their condition and blood flow.

When is Coronary Angiography Recommended?

At Topmed, coronary angiography is recommended for:

Angina pectoris (chest pain)

If pain doesn’t improve with medication or occurs at rest, angiography helps identify any narrowing.

Heart attack

In acute cases, emergency angiography quickly identifies blockages and allows immediate intervention.

Abnormal non-invasive tests

When EKG, stress test, or other exams suggest a problem.

Chronic coronary artery disease

When medication alone isn’t enough and more precise assessment is needed for treatment planning.

What Happens During the Procedure?

1. Patient preparation

The procedure typically lasts 30–60 minutes in a safe, controlled environment. You’ll be awake but may receive a mild sedative to help you relax.

2. Arterial puncture

The catheter is inserted through an artery at the wrist or groin and gently guided to the coronary arteries.

3. Contrast dye injection

Contrast dye is injected through the catheter, making the heart’s vessels visible on X-ray images and revealing any narrowings or blockages.

4. Post-procedure monitoring

After the test, you’ll be monitored for a few hours. Depending on your condition, you may go home the same day or the next day.

What happens after coronary angiography?

What Happens After the Procedure?

Protect the catheter site: avoid strenuous activity for a few days and keep the area clean. If you experience severe pain, swelling, or bleeding, contact a doctor immediately.

If blockages are found, further treatment such as angioplasty or stent placement may be needed.
