Coronary angiogram

Coronary Angiography in Mysore

Overview 

Coronary angiography in Mysore at Manipal Hospital Mysore visualises coronary arteries using catheter-delivered contrast under fluoroscopy, identifying blockages, plaque burden, and anatomy precisely. Performed via radial or femoral access under local anesthesia, it guides revascularisation decisions for stable angina, acute coronary syndromes, and pre-procedural planning. As the best coronary angiography in Mysore, it offers diagnostic clarity, enabling optimal medical therapy, PCI planning, or surgical referral through advanced cath lab infrastructure.

How It Works 

Manipal Hospital Mysore utilizes a sterile, controlled environment for conducting coronary angiogram exams. Patient vitals are continuously monitored during this procedure. In the majority of cases, the procedure will be performed using a catheter inserted through the wrist (radial artery). However, if clinically indicated, the groin (femoral artery) area may be selected.

The applicant will receive a local anaesthetic to numb the entry site prior to insertion of the catheter into the left side of the patient's heart, through which blood flows. After catheter insertion, doctors will inject contrast dye to visualize the coronary arteries on their monitor.

The doctor will have a clear view of the patient’s blood flow in each of these arteries and be alerted to any narrowing/blockages or irregularities with regard to the blood flow through these arteries. The doctors will take many views of this area to ensure that no arteries are overlooked. In specific cases, the doctor may also take additional measurements that assess the amount of blood flow restriction (due to a blockage), especially when the amount of blood flow restriction is undetermined.

During the same procedure, the doctor may also assess the heart's pump functions. Digital images and recordings from this procedure will be saved for cardiologists to access for later analysis and appropriate follow-up actions. The angiogram takes between 20 minutes and 40 minutes on average. Based on the results of the angiogram, the doctor may decide on a course of action during the angiogram procedure or later, based on a thorough discussion of all findings.

Benefits 

Coronary angiography in Mysore provides definitive anatomical diagnosis guiding precise revascularisation at Manipal Hospital.

  • Gold standard coronary anatomy visualisation before intervention.

  • Radial access reduces vascular complications significantly.

  • FFR differentiates ischaemia-causing lesions accurately.

  • Immediate PCI capability during diagnostic procedure.

What to Expect 

Best coronary angiography in Mysore ensures comfortable diagnostic experience from preparation to results at Manipal Hospital.

  • Consultation and Assessment
    Your cardiologist reviews symptoms, test results, and medical history to confirm the need for angiography.

  • Pre-procedure Preparation
    You are advised to fast for a few hours. Kidney function and medications are checked, and the procedure is explained clearly before consent.

  • During the Procedure
    You remain awake and comfortable. A brief warm sensation may be felt when contrast dye is injected. Doctors often explain what they are seeing on the screen.

  • Immediate Monitoring
    After completion, the catheter is removed and the access site is secured. Heart rhythm and blood pressure are monitored closely.

  • Recovery and Discharge
    Most patients sit up and walk within hours. Elective cases usually go home the same day.

  • Doctor Discussion
    Findings are shared clearly, and next steps are discussed, whether medical treatment, angioplasty, or surgical referral.
