Watch an Angiogram Procedure

In this video, Dr. Mark A. Turco, Director of the Center for Cardiac and Vascular Research at Washington Adventist Hospital (Takoma Park, Maryland), performs an angiogram on a female patient with a history of heart disease in her family. Her stress test had indicated that she might have blockages in the blood vessels that carry blood to and from her heart. In his cath lab at Washington Adventist Hospital, Dr. Turco is able to see whether there are blockages and, if so, begin developing a treatment plan for her.
