ct angiogram - SPORTS
What is a CT angiogram? A computed tomography (CT) angiogram is a test that makes detailed pictures of your blood vessels and nearby tissues. The most common reason to have a CT angiogram is to see if you have narrowed or blocked coronary arteries (coronary artery disease).
Context Explanation
A computerized tomography (CT) coronary angiogram is an imaging test that looks at the arteries that supply blood to the heart. A CT coronary angiogram uses a powerful X-ray machine to make images of the heart and its blood vessels. A CT angiogram is a specialized imaging study that provides detailed pictures of your blood vessels. Your healthcare provider may recommend this scan to check for aneurysms, blockages, or other vascular conditions.

Insight Material
CT (computerized tomography) coronary angiogram is a non-invasive test that is used to assess the anatomy of the coronary arteries that supply heart muscle and determine whether they are narrowed or blocked. During a CT coronary angiogram, a CT (computerised tomography) scanner takes images of your heart. These images are cross-sectional (look like slices) and are used to produce 2D and 3D images of your heart and coronary arteries (the blood vessels that supply the heart with blood and oxygen).
