What Does CT Abdomen Angiography Detect?
A CT Abdomen Angio provides a detailed 3D image of the blood flow in abdominal arteries and veins. It helps identify:
-
Aneurysms or abnormal vessel dilatation
-
Narrowing or blockage in arteries
-
Internal bleeding or trauma-related vessel injury
-
Tumor supply vessels
-
Post-surgical vascular changes
-
Blood clots and inflammatory changes
How to Prepare for CT Abdomen Angio
Proper preparation ensures clear images and accurate results:
-
Fasting: Usually required for 4–6 hours before the test.
-
Hydration: Drink plenty of water unless otherwise advised.
-
Contrast allergies: Inform your doctor about any prior reactions to iodine-based dyes.
-
Medications: Continue most medicines, except those restricted by your physician.
-
Avoid metal: Remove jewelry or accessories before the scan.
The Procedure
During the CT Angiography:
-
You’ll lie on a CT table that slides into the scanner.
-
A contrast dye is injected intravenously to enhance vessel visibility.
-
The scanner captures high-resolution cross-sectional and 3D images.
-
The entire process usually takes 15–30 minutes.
After the scan, you can resume normal activities unless your doctor advises otherwise.
