Angiography and venography are essential imaging techniques in interventional radiology used to diagnose and treat vascular conditions affecting arteries and veins. Angiography is a minimally invasive procedure that visualises blood flow in arteries using a contrast dye and fluoroscopy. It helps detect blockages, aneurysms, arterial malformations, and narrowing of blood vessels caused by conditions such as atherosclerosis, peripheral artery disease (PAD), and stroke. A catheter is inserted into a major artery, typically through the groin or wrist, and guided to the target area where the contrast dye is injected. This highlights the blood vessels in real-time, allowing precise assessment of circulation and guiding further treatment like angioplasty or stenting.

Conversely, Venography evaluates the veins and is commonly used to diagnose deep vein thrombosis (DVT), venous insufficiency, and varicose veins. A contrast dye is injected into a vein, and fluoroscopic imaging captures detailed vein structures. This procedure is crucial in planning treatments for chronic venous diseases, venous stenting, or inferior vena cava (IVC) filter placement to prevent pulmonary embolism. Both angiography and venography are not just diagnostic tools but also serve as a guide for minimally invasive therapeutic interventions. These include embolisation to control bleeding, thrombectomy to remove clots, and angioplasty to restore proper blood flow. These procedures have revolutionised vascular care, providing faster recovery, reduced complications, and improved patient outcomes. At Manipal Hospital, Yeshwanthpur, our expert interventional radiologists use advanced imaging techniques to ensure precise diagnosis and effective treatment of vascular conditions.

Below are the key procedures under angiography and venography:

  • Diagnostic Angiography – Imaging of arteries to detect blockages, aneurysms, and vascular malformations.

  • Peripheral Angiography – Evaluates limb circulation, helping diagnose peripheral artery disease (PAD).

  • Cerebral Angiography – Detailed imaging of brain arteries to detect stroke, aneurysms, or arteriovenous malformations.

  • Venography for DVT – Assesses deep veins to diagnose deep vein thrombosis and venous blockages.

  • Pulmonary Angiography – Detects pulmonary embolism by assessing blood flow in the lung arteries.

  • Therapeutic Angioplasty & Stenting – Restores blood flow in blocked arteries using balloon dilation and stent placement.
