CT (computed Tomography) Angiography is a diagnostic and imaging procedure that examine the blood vessels (veins and arteries).  It uses a very powerful X-ray beam and computer system to produce images of the veins, arteries, and tissues.

This computerized tomography angiogram involves the use of contrast media to brighten up the blood vessels and tissues that are to be studied for diagnosis of the problem.
