What Is Angiography ?

Posted on Sat, 5 May 2012

Question: about angiography

Answered by Dr. Gopi A (23 hours later)

Hi,

Thanks for the query.

The ECHO done shows a suspicion of a hole in the heart. It needs to confirmed by getting a TEE(transesophageal ECHO).

The medication that has been prescribed to you is not for the heart.

If the hole is confirmed depending on the size of the hole a decision needs to be taken whether it should be closed or not.

Hope this answers your query. In case of any doubts, I am available for the follow ups.

Regards,
Dr. Gopi

Hello,

Thank you for writing back.

I am not sure for what the doctor has prescribed Inderal. Sometimes it may be for anxiety.

I am not in a position to advise regarding the need for tablet but it has no effect on the hole in the heart.

You can get the TEE done at XXXXXXX hospital in Bhopal with Dr. R. K. XXXXXXX His contact number is 0000. You can call him to fix an appointment.

You can get further details on this link, WWW.WWWW.WW

Dr. A. Gopi
