Results for tag: "Angiography"

Angiography is a type of radiography that uses X-ray imaging to visualize the inside of blood vessels and organs of the body. It is used to diagnose and treat diseases of the cardiovascular system, such as coronary artery disease, aneurysms, and other vascular diseases. Angiography is also used to diagnose and treat diseases of the brain, such as stroke, and to diagnose and treat diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, such as cancer. Angiography is performed using a contrast agent, which is injected into the blood vessels or organs to be imaged. The contrast agent helps to make the vessels and organs visible on the X-ray images. Angiography is typically performed in a hospital or clinic setting, and the images are interpreted by a radiologist. The angiography market is a subset of the larger radiography market, which includes other imaging modalities such as computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The angiography market is expected to grow due to the increasing prevalence of cardiovascular and other diseases, as well as advances in imaging technology. Some companies in the angiography market include GE Healthcare, Siemens Healthineers, Philips Healthcare, Canon Medical Systems, and Hitachi Medical Systems. Show Less Read more
