Coronary Angiography with CT Scan (CT Angiography)
At Al Abdali Hospital, we prioritize your health and work diligently to provide the latest medical technologies to help you live a healthy and vibrant life. As part of our ongoing commitment to providing comprehensive and advanced care, we are proud to offer coronary angiography through CT scan (CT Angiography), one of the most recent and accurate methods for diagnosing coronary heart disease.
Why Choose Coronary CT Angiography at Al Abdali Hospital?
High Accuracy for Coronary disease Diagnosis
Using the advanced CT scan technology, we provide clear and precise three-dimensional images of the heart's arteries. This helps identify any blockages or narrowing that could affect blood flow to the heart, contributing to accurate diagnosis and quick treatment. Also cardiac CTA is used to diagnose congenital coronary abnormalities,which can lead to sudden cardiac deaths.
Non-invasive and Safe Procedure
The scan uses advanced imaging techniques without the need for surgery. A safe contrast agent (dye) is used, providing accurate results without complex procedures.
Quick and Comfortable for the Patient
The scanning process is fast, usually taking no more than 10 to 15 minutes. It is carried out under the supervision of a specialized medical team, ensuring complete peace of mind throughout the procedure.
Specialized Medical Supervision
At Al Abdali Hospital,a teamwork of cardiologists, radiologists and technicians closely monitors every step of the procedure and interprets the results accurately to ensure the best treatment options are offered based on your health condition.
Immediate Consultations
Once the scan is completed, our medical team provides an immediate consultation on the results, allowing you to make informed decisions regarding the necessary treatment steps.
Cardiac CT Calcium Score
The cardiac calcium score test is a simple, quick, and painless procedure that does not require the use of contrast dye. It is used to detect the presence of calcium plaques in the coronary arteries, which can be an indicator of calcium buildup in the arteries. These deposits are a sign of arteriosclerosis, a condition that causes the arteries to narrow and increases the risk of heart disease, such as heart attacks.
This test provides a detailed image of the coronary arteries and allows doctors to determine the amount of calcium that has accumulated in them. This helps assess the risk of coronary artery disease and provides early information about arteriosclerosis before symptoms appear.
This test can assist doctors in determining whether a patient needs to take preventive measures, such as lifestyle changes or medications to prevent heart disease.
