Major Reasons To Get A Coronary Angiogram

Can Reveal Valve Defects Before They Present Symptoms

The heart has a series of valves that regulate the flow of blood in and out of its chambers and to the major organs such as the lungs. Many of the most common heart issues individuals experience are related to improper or decreased performance of these valves. These valve issues are often difficult to identify because the symptoms can be very minor; however, if left undetected, these minor defects can build over time and can then result in serious heart issues. Coronary angiograms can identify these valve issues much earlier than other tests.
