Coronary angiogram
A coronary angiogram is the test that is carried out most by interventional cardiologists. The test examines the heart internally to visualise the coronary arteries and identify any narrowed or blocked arteries. It is not an operation or treatment, but a painless test carried out under local anaesthetic. It is therefore called a minimally invasive procedure.
FFR measurement or FFR-CT
An FFR measurement is a test for narrowing of the coronary arteries. FFR stands for ‘Fractional Flow Reserve' and measures the volume of oxygen-rich blood that flows through your coronary arteries.
