catheter arteriography radiography of vessels after introduction of contrast material through a catheter inserted into an artery.

selective arteriography radiography of a specific vessel which is opacified by a medium introduced directly into it, usually via a catheter.

arteriography

[ärtir′ē·og′rəfē]

Etymology: Gk, arteria, airpipe, graphein, to record

a method of radiologic visualization of arteries performed after a radiopaque contrast medium is introduced into the bloodstream or into a specific vessel by injection or through a catheter. See also angiography. arteriographic, adj.

arteriography [ahr-te″re-og´rah-fe]

angiography of an artery or arterial system.

catheter arteriography radiography of vessels after introduction of contrast material through a catheter inserted into an artery.

coronary arteriography angiography of the coronary arteries, in which a cardiac catheter is inserted into an artery, usually the femoral or brachial artery, advanced under fluoroscopic guidance, and used to inject contrast medium directly into the coronary orifices. It is most often used in evaluations of patients with angina pectoris, prior to coronary artery surgery or percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty.

arteriography

radiography of an artery or arterial system after injection of a contrast medium in the bloodstream. See also angiography.

cerebral arteriography

a radiographic procedure designed to visualize the blood supply to the brain in order to demonstrate the presence of a space-occupying lesion.

arteriography

Imaging The visualization of arteries by injecting a radiocontrast into an artery suspected of having significant stenosis or occlusion–eg, affected by ASHD which, if untreated, may lead to infarction of a limb or organ, long-term disability, death Sites performed Carotid, coronary, femoral arteries; each may require surgical or medical–ie non-surgical therapy, if the artery is severely occluded.
