CT Coronary Angio (Coronary CT Angiography) is an advanced non-invasive imaging test used to evaluate the coronary arteries that supply blood to the heart muscle. Using high-resolution CT technology along with contrast dye, this scan provides detailed images of the coronary vessels.
This test is highly effective in detecting narrowing (stenosis), blockages, or plaque buildup in the arteries, which may lead to coronary artery disease and increase the risk of heart attack. It also helps in assessing overall heart health and guiding further treatment decisions.
CT Coronary Angio is widely used as a quick and accurate diagnostic tool, especially for patients with chest pain or those at risk of cardiovascular disease. It offers a safer alternative to conventional invasive angiography in many cases.
This test is recommended for individuals with:
