Healthcare International is Transforming Treatment for Heart Diseases with Angiography
Your heart works tirelessly, beating 100,000 times a day to keep you alive. But what happens when its lifelines — your arteries — get blocked?
That’s where angiography comes in. At Healthcare International (HCI), we use this advanced imaging test to look deep inside your blood vessels and detect problems before they become life-threatening.
What is Angiography?
Angiography is a specialized imaging test that uses X-rays and a contrast dye to take detailed pictures of your blood vessels.
Think of it as a map of your circulation system — showing doctors exactly where your arteries may be narrowed, blocked, or weakened.
It’s most commonly used for:
- Coronary angiography (to check heart arteries)
- Brain angiography (to detect strokes or aneurysms)
- Peripheral angiography (to assess blood flow in arms and legs)
When Should You Consider Angiography?
Your doctor may recommend angiography if you have:
- Chest pain or angina that doesn’t go away
- Shortness of breath or fatigue on exertion
- Heart attack symptoms
- Stroke-like episodes
- Leg pain or cramps while walking (Peripheral Artery Disease)
Early detection through angiography can prevent heart attacks, strokes, and life-threatening complications.
How is Angiography Done?
At HCI’s advanced cath labs, the procedure is safe, quick, and minimally invasive:
- You’ll receive local anesthesia.
- A thin tube (catheter) is inserted, usually through the wrist or groin.
- Contrast dye is injected to make your blood vessels visible.
- X-ray images (angiograms) are taken in real-time.
The test usually takes 30–60 minutes, and most patients can go home the same day.
