6. COMMON ANGIOGRAPHIC VIEWS
OF CONGENITAL HEART DISEASE
• Biplane cineangiography is require
• For VSD
LAO - 500
– 600
Cranial - 200
– 300
• For ASD (Hepatoclavicular angiographic view)
LAO - 500
– 600
Cranial - 200
– 300
7. • For transposition of great arteries(Laid
back angiographic view)
Steep AP caudal - 350
• Proximal branch pulmonary artery
anatomy
Steep AP cranial - 350
8. Causes of Poor Angiograms
• PATIENT FACTORS
Size
Movement
Hardware (Pacemaker, Harrison rods, multiple surgery with clips)
• Angiographer Factors
Poor catheter seating
Poor contrast injection
• Equipment Factors
X-ray generated problem
X-ray tube problem
Image intensifier problem
