Dr. Payam Mehranpour answered

Specializes in Internal Medicine - Cardiology

Angiogram?: Angiography can be invasive, or by ct or mr. It can be done for any organ/blood vessel. Invasive angiography has the highest npv for excluding significant (>50%) coronary artery stenosis and is the gold standard. Coronary cta has a npv of >95%.
