• What is MRI Coronary Angiography?

MRI Coronary Angiography is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to create detailed images of the coronary arteries. This test gives better clarity of blood vessels, which helps detect irregularities such as blockages, stenosis (Narrowing of blood vessels), or other cardiac conditions. This advanced imaging method offers a safer alternative to traditional angiography, reducing radiation exposure while delivering high-quality results. By capturing clear images of coronary blood flow, MRI Coronary Angiography plays a crucial role in identifying and managing conditions that can lead to serious complications, including heart disease.

• Why is MRI Coronary Angiography Done?

1. 1. To detect and diagnose coronary artery disease and blockages.
   2. To assess blood flow in the coronary arteries.
   3. To evaluate the effectiveness of previous treatments or interventions.
   4. To plan surgical or other medical procedures related to cardiac health.
   5. To identify abnormalities, such as aneurysms and vascular malformations.

How to Prepare for MRI Coronary Angiography?

1. Avoid eating or drinking for a few hours before the test, as instructed by your healthcare provider.
2. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing and remove any metal objects, including jewellery and watches.
3. Inform the technician about any allergies, especially to contrast dyes and any pre-existing medical conditions or implants.
4. You may be asked to change into a hospital gown before the procedure.

What is the Procedure for MRI Coronary Angiography?

1. Preparation: Change into a hospital gown and remove metallic items.
2. Scanning: Lie on a movable table that slides into the MRI machine. A contrast agent may be injected through an IV line to enhance imaging.
3. Scanning: Remain still while the MRI machine uses radio waves and strong magnets to capture images of your coronary arteries.
4. Noise Reduction: Earplugs or headphones may be provided to minimize the noise from the MRI machine.
5. Completion: The entire process typically takes about 30 to 60 minutes. You can return to your normal activities afterwards.

Aftercare for MRI Coronary Angiography

No special aftercare is required following the procedure.
