This shows the degree and seriousness of any coronary illness, and can assist you with figuring out how well your heart is functioning.To create the X-ray images, your doctor will inject a liquid dye through a thin, flexible tube, called a catheter. The doctor threads the catheter into the desired artery from an access point. The access point is usually in your arm but it can also be in your groin. The dye makes the blood flowing inside the blood vessels visible on an X-ray and shows any narrowed or blocked area in the blood vessel. The dye is later eliminated from your body through your kidneys and your urine.
