CT – Peripheral Angiogram is a specialized imaging procedure that uses computed tomography (CT) along with contrast dye to obtain detailed images of the blood vessels in the peripheral parts of the body, including the arms and legs.

During the procedure, a contrast agent is injected into a vein, which highlights the arteries and veins on CT images. This allows accurate assessment of blood flow and identification of abnormalities such as narrowing (stenosis), blockages, aneurysms, or vascular malformations.

The scan produces high-resolution cross-sectional and 3D images, making it highly useful in diagnosing peripheral vascular diseases and planning surgical or interventional procedures.

CT Peripheral Angiogram is commonly used in patients with symptoms like limb pain, numbness, swelling, or reduced blood flow. It is a non-invasive and effective alternative to conventional angiography in many cases.

The purpose of CT Peripheral Angiogram is to evaluate blood vessels in the limbs.

It helps to:

• Detect narrowing or blockage in arteries
• Identify peripheral vascular disease (PVD)
• Detect blood clots or thrombosis
• Identify aneurysms or vascular malformations
• Evaluate blood flow to limbs
• Assist in treatment and surgical planning
