What is Bi-plane Angiography?

Bi-plane angiography is an imaging technique used to visualize the blood vessels within the body. This technique involves using two X-ray machines positioned at perpendicular angles, allowing for a more comprehensive and precise image of the blood vessels.

Bi-plane angiography is commonly used during catheterization procedures to guide the placement of the catheter and ensure accurate placement. Unlike traditional angiography, which only provides a two-dimensional image, bi-plane angiography provides a three-dimensional understanding of the image that allows doctors to more accurately diagnose and treat abnormalities.

This technology has revolutionized the field of interventional radiology and has greatly improved patient outcomes.
