Suggest A Safe Alternative For Invasive Angiogram.
I live in Goa, India. I had a quad. bypass when I lived in Italy ten years ago. I am doing some checks at the moment and it seems that I need an angiogram. I am very reluctant to do the invasive angiogram. What do you suggest and where is the nearest place in which I can do this? Thank you
Hello You may undergo CT coronary angiography .It is simple CT scan of heart with intravenous contrast Injected from external vein. My best wishes Dr.Rajesh Teli,MD.
