CT Angiography Left Upper Limb in Faridabad

CT Angiography Left Upper Limb is a fast and robust imaging technique to assess the blood vessel related abnormalities in patients with thromboembolism, atherosclerosis, aortic dissection, vasculitis, aneurysm, occlusion, stenosis, and other conditions affecting the vessels with proximity to the wrist. CT angiography of the left upper limb is also used to detect fibromuscular dysplasia, Raynaud syndrome, Buerger disease, and other cerebrovascular diseases.

A contrast media (usually iodine solution) is injected intravenously before or during the procedure to highlight vascular abnormalities. This imaging is done in a hospital setting under the direct supervision of an interventional radiologist/cardiovascular specialist or vascular surgeon. Usually, 4-6 hours of fasting is required before the procedure, along with blood urea and creatinine reports. You should inform your doctor if you are allergic to iodine.
