CT Angiogram questions

Posted , 4 users are following.

has anyone had a CT Angiogram and if so was it accurate? has anyone ever had a CT Angiogram that missed something?

I'm not talking about a Angiogram with a cath. I'm talking about one where they use the dye and do a scan of your heart.

    If you are worried about a result you have been given, ask for a copy of the CT scan and get a second opinion at another hospital. CT scans are usually the most accurate but if you move around during the procedure sometimes they can be a bit blurry like when you move during a photo and things may be missed or wrongly diagnosed.
