Is angiography test is not safe?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not risk-free: When done by a well trained/experienced physician, it should be a safe procedure however that does not mean that it is free of risk. If determined to be necessary, the benefits of the test should outweigh the risks. The physician performing the test should discuss risks and benefits with the patient prior to angiography.
