Ask Cardiologist: It is best to ask your cardiologist (the one who did the angiogram) how long you should wait to drive or travel after the angiogram.

Depends: If you are going to have an angiogram performed through a groin vessel the time will depend on the size of the catheter used and whether or not your doctor used a closure device (material used to seal the puncture wound in the blood vessel). You must consult the doctor who will be doing the procedure to answer your question properly.
