Coronary angiography can help evaluate coronary arteries in carefully selected situations. Not every patient with chest pain needs the procedure.
How is a decision made?
Your clinician evaluates the symptoms, history, test results, possible benefits, risks and alternatives before advising whether angiography is appropriate.
Preparation and aftercare
Advice about food, medication and investigations differs by procedure and patient. Follow the specific instructions given by your treating team.
What to do next
Speak with a qualified clinician to understand which options suit your situation. The site cannot assess symptoms or offer an online diagnosis.
