Radial Angiogram :
It is the procedure to see inside the coronary arteries or, indeed the coronary arteries supplying blood directly to the heart. This is usually done by puncture of the radial artery in the wrist. Such a procedure is usually conducted when there is an observed blockage or narrowing of the arteries which is likely to cause problems in the heart, like angina, and even heart attacks.
The procedure requires an invasive catheter, which is introduced through the radial artery and also a contrast dye is administered to the patient enabling the arteries to be visualized on fluro as images. Overall in comparison to the technique that was introduced via the femoral artery, the process with the approach via the radial artery has the additional benefits that include faster recovery, minimal bleeding, and lower potential complications. The process is useful in determining further treatment procedures and enabling doctors to assess the intensity of coronary artery disease. It is generally performed by an interventional cardiologist in a cathlab. Post procedure the patient is generally ambulated within 2 hours discharged on the same day unless the patient is advised further intervention immediately
