32
It helped to reduce the visual interference from bones, tissues, and other static structures, allowing a clearer view of the blood vessels.
CONVENTIONAL SUBTRACTION TECHNIQUE
32
The core idea behind conventional subtraction is to take two sets of X-ray images:
- Initial (mask) image
- Subsequent (contrast-enhanced) image
32
This is a baseline image taken before the injection of contrast dye. It shows the structures of the body (bones, tissues, etc.), but not the blood vessels, since they haven't been highlighted yet.

Women who had been taking an oral contraceptive pill for no fewer than 3 months and were satisfied that it was effective.
Women who had an intrauterine contraceptive device for no fewer than 3 months and had found it effective

THE CHAIN OF RESPONSIBILITY FOR ENSURING THAT THE FETUS IS NOT EXPOSED TO IONIZING RADIATION IS:
The patient
The referring clinician
The radiologist
The radiographer

HIGH RISK FACTORS WITH IV CONTRAST ADMINISTRATION:
- A previous severe adverse reaction to contrast medium
- Asthma or a significant allergic history
- Proven or suspected hypersensitivity to iodine
- B-blockers
- Heart disease
- Infants and small children
- Hepatic failure
- Moderate to severe impairment of renal function
- Myelomatosis
- Poor hydration
- Sickle-cell anaemia
- Co-administration of Metformin (glucophage)
Thyrotoxicosis

is part of contrast media or is a ingredient of cm

Most commonly artery: (for catheter technique
- femoral artery
- radial artery
- jugylar veun
- brachial artery
45
For the advantages of catheter techniques:
Minimally invasive
Reel time imaging
Therapeutic options
46
Puncture sites
- femoral
Brachical
Aciallary
Aorta
46
Most frequently used in puncture site
Femoral artery
47
A high approach is preferable of puncture site
Brachial artery
48
A puncture site for historical interest only
Aorta
48
This is the most frequently used punctures site providing access to the left ventricle, aorta and all its branches
FEMORAL ARTERY PUNCTURE
48
It also has the lowest complication. rate of the peripheral sites.
FEMORAL ARTERY PUNCTURE
48
Complication for femoral artery puncture
Bleeding and hematoma
Arterial dissection
Infection
Pseudoaneurysm
Thrombosis - blood clot or forming of blood clot in puncture site leading to vessels embolism
Nerve injury but in rare cases, it occurs when the vessels is weak
Contrast reaction
49
In
FEMORAL ARTERY PUNCTURE
This is the most frequently used punctures site providing access to the WHAT
to the left ventricle, aorta and all its branches
49
In femoral artery what are the CONTRAINDICATIONS:
Blood dyscrasias
Femoral artery aneurysm
Marked tortuosity of the iliac vessel that many prevent further advancement of the guide-wire or catheter
49
This approach associated with higher incidence is of complication, it should only be used if femoral artery puncture is not possible.
High brachial artery
49
Indications for femoral artery puncture:
,- cardiac catherization
Peripheral vascular procedure
- Intra Arterial drug delivery
The hemodynamic monitoring
49
Indications for high brachial artery:
- Cardiac catheterization
- Peripheral arterial access
- The intra arterial blood sampling
- the hemodynamic monitoring
-
50
For high brachial artery CONTRAINDICATIONS
Atherosclerosis of the axillary or subclavian arteries
Subclavian artery
50
This approach associated with is higher incidence of complications and should only be used if femoral or high brachial artery puncture is not possible.
Axiallary puncture
50
Indications for axillary puncture:
- Angiography and angioplasty
- Cardiovascular intervention
- Intra arterial drug administration
- The hemodynamic monitoring
50
For axillary artery CONTRAINDICATIONS
Atherosclerosis of the axillary or subclavian arteries
Subclavian artery aneurysm.
50
COMPLICATIONS OF ANY CATHETER TECHNIQUES:
1. Due to anesthetics
2. Due to contrast medium
3. Due to technique itself
50
AFTER CARE
1.Bed rest this should be for at least 4-6 hours. Larger catheters require longer bed rest and observation.
2. Careful observation of the puncture site.
3. Pulse and blood pressure observation 30 minutes for 4 h and then 4-hourly for the remainder of 24 hours, if the larger catheter systems are used.

Good luck!!
