Doctors use angiography to detect and treat problems with the cardiovascular system's blood vessels. Angiography procedures capture images of the body's major arteries. Contrast material is used in some diagnostic procedures. To do angiograms, doctors use:-  Catheterized x-rays CT scans, or computed tomography Imaging with a magnet and radio waves To create high-resolution images of blood arteries and surrounding tissues, CT angiography uses computed tomography (CT). Contrast material is administered through a catheter into an arm vein during the exam. While the contrast material is pumped through the patient's veins and arteries, a CT scan will be performed to obtain high-resolution images. What is the process like? Traditional X-ray imaging and CT scanning share many commonalities. In standard X-ray imaging, a single X-ray source fires a beam of rays across the patient's body. A detection plate captures the X-rays emitted from the body. The image will appear in varyi...

An erratic heartbeat is known as an arrhythmia . This indicates that your heartbeat is not in its regular rhythm. Some people report feeling their hearts "flutter," "skip," or "add" a beat. Tachycardia (a rapid heart rate) or bradycardia (a slow heart rate) can cause discomfort. On the other hand, you could not even notice. Arrhythmias can be life-threatening or completely benign. If you notice anything unusual with your heart rate, getting medical attention immediately is essential. Types of Arrhythmias Among the many forms of arrhythmia are: Atrial Fibrillation - When the heart's top chambers pulse irregularly or too quickly, a condition known as atrial fibrillation (AFib) develops. Ventricular fibrillation - When the bottom chambers of the heart pulse erratically and cannot pump blood adequately, a condition known as ventricular fibrillation (VFib) develops. Supraventricular Tachycardia - A rapid heartbeat that starts in the higher heart chambers is...
