Analysis of the angiogram should be based on an understanding of coronary physiology, and how the structure and function are altered by a variety of disease states. In this chapter, I outline the methods for quantitatively assessing the coronary angiogram, as well as how atherosclerosis affects ...
You may be able to see the progress of the catheter on the x-raymonitor.2Normal Angiogram: Severely narrowed or blocked artery:The tip of the catheter is pushed just inside a main coronary artery. Some dyeis then injected down the catheter and into the artery. Several x-ray filmsare ...
