Welcome to Cardio Plus Heart Care Clinic, where advanced diagnostics meet expert care under the leadership of best cardiologist Dr. Jignesh Patel. Specializing in carotid and renal angiography, our clinic offers critical insights into vascular health, aiding in the prevention and management of conditions that could lead to stroke or kidney impairment.
What Is Carotid / Renal Angiography?
Carotid and renal angiography are specialized imaging procedures that visualize the arteries supplying blood to the brain and kidneys. These tests are crucial for detecting blockages or abnormalities that may pose serious health risks.
How Do Carotid / Renal Angiography Procedures Work?
The procedure involves inserting a catheter through a small incision, usually in the groin or arm. Contrast dye is then injected, and images are taken as the dye flows through the carotid or renal arteries. Dr. Jignesh Patel meticulously analyzes these images to assess arterial health.
What Conditions Can Carotid / Renal Angiography Detect?
- Carotid Angiography: Identifies narrowing or blockages in the carotid arteries, which can lead to stroke.
- Renal Angiography: Detects stenosis or blockages in the renal arteries, which can affect kidney function and blood pressure.
What Are the Benefits of Undergoing These Angiography Procedures?
These procedures are pivotal in accurately diagnosing vascular conditions, enabling early intervention. They are minimally invasive, involve minimal recovery time, and provide critical information that can prevent more severe health issues.
Who Should Consider Carotid / Renal Angiography?
Patients with symptoms of reduced blood flow to the brain, such as transient ischemic attacks, or those with fluctuating blood pressure and suspected renal artery involvement should consider these diagnostic tests.
How Should Patients Prepare for Carotid / Renal Angiography?
Patients may be advised to avoid eating or drinking for several hours before the procedure. It’s also important to discuss all medications with a doctor, as some may need to be paused or adjusted.
