FAQs
Where is the procedure carried out?
Coronary angiography is done in a cardiac catheterisation laboratory(Cath Lab) that look like operating theatres. . In addition to the cardiologist, a number of nurses, X-ray staff and cardiac technicians will be present.

Are there any risk?
Like any medical procedure, coronary angioplasty occasionally causes complications. However, in skilled hands these are rare. The doctor performing the investigation will discuss this with you before the test. Feel free to bring up any concerns or questions you have.
What happens afterwards?
The coronary angioplasty results will be discussed with you after the test. Any ongoing treatment will also be discussed and the need for any further follow up. Your referring doctor and local GP will also get the results.
What will the patient be expecting?
The echocardiogram is an ultrasound of the heart. Patient will be required to lie on an examination bed and a technician will be utilising a transducer against the patient's chest to obtain two-dimensional images of the heart. Patient may be asked to roll on their side during the test, or hold their breath for a few seconds. The test takes approximately 30 minutes to be completed A cardiologist later reports on the findings and the results are usually available within two days.
