Abstract
Angiography is a procedure by which an image of the internal structure of blood vessels is obtained. The conventional way of achieving an image is by X-radiography of vessels into which a contrast medium has been injected. This is called conventional angiography and has been in use in medicine for diagnostic purposes since the 1920s.
