Get expert care and peace of mind with our trusted services.
Overview
What Is a CT Angiogram?
A CT Angiogram is a non-invasive imaging test that uses X-rays and a contrast dye to create detailed pictures of your blood vessels and heart. It’s a quick, safe way to detect blockages, narrowing, or abnormalities, especially in the coronary arteries, without invasive procedures. In Singapore, this scan is widely available, taking just 15–25 minutes.
Who Needs a CT Angiogram?
- Symptomatic Individuals: Chest pain, shortness of breath, or fatigue suggesting heart disease.
- High-Risk Groups: Smokers, diabetics, or those with high cholesterol, hypertension, or family history.
- Unclear Test Results: When ECGs or stress tests aren’t conclusive.
- Vascular Concerns: Checking for aneurysms, blood clots, or other conditions.
How Is the Procedure Done?
- Process: Lie on a table that slides into a CT scanner. A contrast dye is injected via IV.
- Pain: Painless – you might feel a warm sensation from the dye.
- Sedation: Rarely needed; relaxants available if anxious.
- Time: Takes 15–25 minutes; results in 1–3 days.
What Is Needed for Follow-Up?
