(CTA) CT angiography is a type of medical exam that combines a CT scan with an injection of a contrast media to produce pictures of blood vessels and tissues in a part of your body. The contrast is injected through an intravenous (IV) line started in your arm or hand.
Computed tomography angiography (CTA) is a noninvasive procedure that enhances certain anatomic views of vascular structures. It becomes invasive when contrast medium is used. This procedure complements traditional angiography and allows reconstruction of the images in different planes and removal of surrounding structures, leaving only the vessels to be studied.
