What is Renal Angiography? How is it Performed?

Renal angiography is a specialized radiological examination used to visualize the blood vessels of the kidneys. It is performed to diagnose narrowing, blockage, ballooning (aneurysm), or other problems in the renal arteries. This method, known as catheter angiography, provides detailed imaging of the kidney’s vascular structure using a contrast agent.

What is Renal Angiography?

A Reliable Diagnostic Method for Your Kidney Health

The A Life Health Group Renal Angiography Unit provides services with modern technology and an expert team for detailed imaging of kidney vessels and evaluation of kidney health. Renal angiography plays a critical role in the diagnosis of kidney diseases and is used to detect blockages, blood flow problems, and abnormalities.

Renal angiography is an invasive procedure performed to visualize the blood vessels of the kidneys (renal arteries and veins). This procedure is generally carried out under local anesthesia, with a special catheter used to inject contrast material. The resulting images provide important information for the diagnosis and treatment of kidney diseases.

In Which Cases is Renal Angiography Performed?

Renal angiography is generally used for the diagnosis and evaluation of the following conditions:

Renal artery stenosis (narrowing of the kidney vessels)
Renovascular hypertension (high blood pressure due to vessel narrowing)
Renal artery aneurysm (ballooning of the kidney vessels)
Vascular changes due to kidney tumors
Renal vasculitis (inflammation of the kidney vessels)
Kidney embolism or thrombosis (blood clot formation in the vessels)

How is Renal Angiography Performed?

Preparation: The patient must fast for several hours before the procedure. Kidney function tests are performed prior to the procedure.
Catheter Placement: A thin catheter is inserted through a vessel in the groin or arm.
Contrast Administration: The catheter is guided to the kidney vessels, and contrast material is injected.
Imaging: Detailed images of the vessels are obtained using an X-ray device.
Procedure Duration: Renal angiography usually takes 30-60 minutes.

Advantages of Renal Angiography

Provides a definitive diagnosis and clearly visualizes problems in the kidney vessels.
Can be used for therapeutic purposes (angioplasty or stent placement).
Minimally invasive procedure, completed in a short time.
Causes of high blood pressure can be determined.

Risks of Renal Angiography

As with any medical procedure, renal angiography may involve certain risks:

Allergic reaction (to the contrast material)
Bleeding or hematoma (at the catheter insertion site)
Temporary impairment of kidney function
Risk of infection
