Angiography is a diagnostic procedure that checks the health of the blood vessels. It is performed using an x-ray machine, following the injection of a special dye which highlights the blood vessels.

You will be able to have the angiogram without general anaesthetic, although you may be mildly sedated. A local anaesthetic will be used near your groin or wrist, depending on the artery that is going to be used for the scan.
A small cut is made near the artery, to allow the insertion of a small, thin, flexible tube, which allows the contrast dye to enter the bloodstream. The x-ray images are taken once the dye begins to appear in the vessels.
An angiogram usually takes anywhere between 30 minutes and 2 hours to complete. It is recommended that you rest at home following the procedure, and may notice a little bruising or soreness for a few days afterwards.
