Common Questions and Answers about Coronary angiogram procedure report

angiogram

Avatar m tn My father had undergone TMT and was shown positive - so the doctors asked him to do angiogram - So he got the procedure done, now the results are out and the doctors are recommending him to go for ByPass surgery. I am attaching the reports and the xray - Please let me know how bad is his condition? Our whole family is stressed out. Please help....
Avatar n tn The heart is supplied by oxygen rich blood through three coronary arteries (vessels). Your father's coronary angiogram shows that all three vessels are diseased (tVCAD= triple vessel Coronary Artery Disease). This means that in all three vessels there is evidence of blockages. Blockages can be mild or severe or even complete, so the fact that your father has tVCAD dooes not say much about the severity of the disease. That he does not feel well could mean that it is serious though.
Avatar f tn Right Groin was anesthetized using 2% Xylocaine.6F sheath inserted.inj.Heparin 3,000 IU iv given. Coronary Angiography was performed using Ionic dye (80ml)&6F Judkins (JL4, JR4) catheters. Following the procedure sheath was pulled and manual pressure applied. Patient tolerated the procedure well there were no complications. AO. PRESSURE: Pre: 141/80/98 FINDINGS: Left Main Stem: Normal. Bifurcating vessel. Left Anterior Descending: Sub total occlusion below D1. Circumflex: Normal.
Avatar f tn --------- The coronary arterial calcium score is 533. The coronary arterial system is right dominant. The left main coronary artery (LMCA) reveals thin soft plaques with no significant stenosis and trifurcates into left anterior descending (LAD), ramus intermedius (RI) and left circumflex (LCx). The proximal LAD reveals calcified plaques causing 30% stenosis. Rest of the LAD reveals occasional plaques with no significant stenosis. The diagonal branches reveal no significant stenosis.
7096641 tn?1389471208 left main stem :normal bifurcating vessel. Left Anterior Descending artery: Long segment of severe disease in mid LAD following by tight stenosis at mid-distal junction.Fair sized D2 show tight ostio-proximal stenosis. Left Circumflex Artery: Subtotal mid occlusion;distal vessel fills faintly antegradely .large size OM2 shows tight proximal steosis. Right coronary artery : Dominant vessel with the tight mid stenosis followed by two sequential tight stenoses in mid.
Avatar m tn Approach right radial Left Main Coronary Artery: Normal,Distal 50% Stenosis Left Anterior Descending Coronary Artery:type III,ostial tight Stenosis Diagonals: Normal Dominant proximal mild plaquing present left pda distal diffuse disease RCA: Non- Dominant Normal Impression:CAD-LM+DVD CABG/PTCA+DES please suggest the criticality and which process is best?would it be good to go with medicines which can cure or need a immediate surgery?
Avatar n tn My thallium nuc med scan showed "abnormal coronary flow reserve about the apex and distal inferolateral wall". Is this an indication of a blockage in an artery? I have a right bundle branch block; anterior MI in 2003 with a stent inserted in the proximal LAD. Symptoms include SOB, mid sternum tightness, and rt. jaw discomfort. Stress echo was inconclusive; I was allergic to dolbutamine.
Avatar n tn Usually, there is a report. Do you have the report, and if so you can post the information and someone can help you to understand the significance, etc. Thanks for your question on the Heart forum, and if you have any further questions you welcome to respond. Take care.
Avatar m tn Following is the report. Kindly, advise me on what should be done next. she has symptoms like heaviness in the left shoulder,fatules and occurs only after taking a meal followed by some form of exercise (mild eg.walking). Left Coronary Artery Left Main Stem: Normal bifurcating vessel Left Anterior Descending Artery: moderate diffuse with intervening tight stenosis Mild ostial disease and tight distal vessel stenosis.
18997880 tn?1470851656 but the same symptoms and doctor says thers nothing wrong ..the report for Coronary CT ANGIO is : -LIMA TO LAD -normal -the coronary arterial system is right dominant -the left main coronary artery (LMCA) reveals 70-80% ostial stenosis and bifurcates into left anterior descending (LAD) and left circumflex(LCx) -The LAD reeals scattered calcified plaques obscuring the lumen.
Avatar m tn CT angiograms will expose you to a small amount of radiation. If you have known coronary artery disease, a traditional coronary angiogram may be a better option, since you can also receive treatment for your artery blockages during a traditional coronary angiogram. Since you are symptomatic but do not have known coronary artery disease, you can go ahead with the CT scan, based on these findings further therapy can be planned. Regards.
Avatar n tn An angiogram is a procedure that images a contrast agent that passes through the vessels during rest and then with exertion to observe if there is any obstruction. There shouldn't be any risk with a CT scan, and if the procedure is with a cath the risk may be a problem at the entery site (groan) as a diabetic may have some difficuty with the healing process other risks are minimal i.e. rupture, uncontrolled bleeding, etc. Doctors are quickly available if there is a problem.
Avatar n tn hey my dad is suppose to go in for an angiogram but he fears what might happen to him if he does. i was wondering if there was possible any alternative procedure or something else he could possibly do.
Avatar n tn So they saw abnormalities and yet say you are ok? how odd. It seems odd how the stress echo detected ischemia in the back of the left ventricle, yet they say it's ok. To have witnessed this in the test, they would have seen the left ventricle motion is not normal, they wouldn't have been able to see inside any coronary arteries. The angiogram has identified the reason as a restriction in the circumflex.
