The Coronary Artery Angiography (CAG) procedure typically takes about 30 to 60 minutes to complete. However, the total time spent at the hospital may be several hours due to preparation and post-procedure monitoring. Coronary artery angiography (CAG) is a minimally invasive diagnostic procedure used to assess the blood flow in the coronary arteries. The total time required for the procedure varies based on the complexity of the case, patient condition, and hospital protocols.

The time required for a coronary angiography may be longer in the following cases: complex or Severe Blockages  Additional imaging or prolonged catheter navigation may be required combined Procedures – If an angioplasty or stent placement is performed during the same session, it causes– Patients with kidney disease, diabetes, or allergies to contrast de may require additional precautions Emergency Situations – Urgent angiography in heart attack patients may be performed more quickly but followed by longer monitoring

A computerized tomography machine is used to look at the heart's blood vessels. This type of angiogram doesn't need tubes placed inside the body. It's called a coronary CT angiogram (CCTA). It may be done to determine whether someone needs cardiac catheterization. A narrowing or blockage in the vessels cannot be treated during a CT angiogram. Monitoring the catheter Insertion & Navigation then start contrast Dye Injection & X-ray Imaging with evaluation & decision making.
