Abstract:Coronary angiography is a common procedure used to identify coronary artery disease. Whether femoral or radial vascular access is employed may impact radiation dosage and contrast dye utilization. This study examined radiation exposure and contrast dye volume in femoral and radial approach in patients undergoing coronary angiography. Objective: To assess and compare the radiation dosage and contrast dye volume between patients having coronary angiography through the femoral and radial routes. Methods: A prospe… Show more
