Problem description: Are there any side effects of doing cardiac imaging?
Question date:2021-01-07
Patient information:Age: 52 years old Gender: Male
Question analysis: Generally, the purpose of cardiac imaging examination is to confirm whether the patient has coronary heart disease and myocardial infarction. Cardiac angiography is performed by inserting a thin catheter into the aorta, and injecting a contrast agent to show the shape and flow of the heart’s blood vessels.
Guide suggestion: The risk of doing cardiac imaging is relatively small now, and its main harm comes from cardiovascular disease itself. If it is an elderly patient, combined with myocardial infarction, cardiac insufficiency, etc., it will increase the risk of cardiac imaging. Individual patients will experience complications such as atrial fibrillation and bleeding after cardiac imaging.
