Conventional radiography of the heart

Conventional radiography (X-ray) can provide useful information to doctors in the diagnosis of heart disease. At the beginning, for the initial diagnosis and to find out the basic information about heart problems, doctors must take a radiology picture of the chest for the patients. It is the so-called medical chest radiology (CHEST X-RAY). Chest X-ray image to observe and examine the heart and blood vessels that enter and exit the heart. It provides the size and shape of the heart, the location of blood vessels and the diagnosis of problems such as the thickness of the heart wall, the presence of sodium in the blood vessels of the heart, and problems such as swelling of the lungs and blockage of the pulmonary vessels.

CT scan of the heart is done through the use of X-rays and advanced computers and it displays accurate ۳D images of the heart and blood vessels. CT scan of the heart is able to accurately detect blockages in the heart vessels. With the three-dimensional and accurate images obtained from the heart vessels, doctors are able to investigate the location and severity of blockages. Also, check the size and map of blood flow in the heart vessels and make appropriate treatment decisions.
