CT
Angiography Chest + Abdomen + Lower Limb CONTRAST
Also Known As:
ct angio chest
ct angio abdomen
ct angio lower limb
ct peripheral angiography
About This Test
This comprehensive angiography uses intravenous contrast to visualize arteries from the chest to lower limbs, offering a complete vascular map. The scan is crucial for detecting blockages, narrowing, aneurysms, or peripheral vascular disease. It is recommended for patients with widespread cardiovascular risk, leg pain, diabetes-related circulation problems, or suspected thromboembolism. Contrast enhances visibility of even small vessels, ensuring precise diagnosis. The procedure is non-invasive, fast, and supports planning of stent placement, bypass surgeries, or other vascular interventions. Detailed imaging helps physicians monitor pre-existing vascular conditions and track post-surgical outcomes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Some scans need contrast dye for clearer images. Your doctor will advise based on your
condition.
condition.
Ans- Most scans take 5–10 minutes.
Ans-Yes. CT scan is a safe imaging test. However, it exposes you to a small dose of radiation. For most people, such a small potential risk far outweighs the benefits, in terms of saving your life. The radiation dose is controlled and kept within safe limits.
TAT Policy
The Turnaround Time (TAT) depends on the following factors:
- Registration date and time
- Type of scan or test
- Scan time or sample collection time
In uncommon circumstances, TAT may be delayed due to test complexity or reasons beyond our control. You will be informed of the estimated TAT at the time of registration.
