Question

My mom recently had an angioplasty done for two of her blocked arteries, and now she's showing some signs that make me worry there might be more blockages. Is there a way to check for blockages without having to go through another angiography? Would really appreciate your advice on this.

can undergo a CT angiography to detect any further blockage without going through another angiography. It is a non-invasive imaging test that can provide detailed images of the blood vessels. The doctor may prescribe medications like Atorvastatin to manage cholesterol levels and Clopidogrel to prevent blood clots. Regular follow-up with the cardiologist is important to monitor her condition.
