What's the difference between angiography and arteriography?

Angiography


Definition:

  • (8) Current methodology for the in vitro determination of aortic and large artery stiffness is reviewed and involves three approaches: (1) the estimation of distensibility by pulse wave velocity measurement; (2) the estimation of distensibility from the fractional diameter change of a given arterial segment by imaging techniques (e.g., angiography, Doppler ultrasound) against pressure change; (3) the estimation of compliance by determining volume change against pressure change in the arterial system during diastolic runoff from the Windkessel model of the circulation.
  • (9) Infusion hepatic angiography and computed tomography with angiography were performed yearly, ultrasound every 3 months, and determination of serum alpha-fetoprotein levels every 2 months.

  • (15) When an exercise test is not performed, a resting radionuclide left ventricular ejection fraction is recommended, and coronary angiography is considered if the value lies between 0.20 and 0.44 (12% 1-year mortality).
  • (16) Qualitative planar 201-thallium (201Tl) scans, coronary angiography, or both were also performed (median between studies 11 days).
  • (17) This was documented by angiography and during surgery when an aortic-pulmonary shunt was done.
  • (18) Angiography should follow immediately when no secretion is produced on one or both sides.
  • (19) All MR images were compared with findings of chest X-ray, CT and IVDSA (intravenous digital subtraction angiography) as appropriate.
  • (20) Global left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was obtained by radionuclide angiography and analyzed with an automatic detection program.

Arteriography


Definition:

  • (n.) A systematic description of the arteries.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Renal arteriography is therefore alone capable of answering two primordial questions: "Must surgery be undertaken and when operating, what surgical tactics to adopt".
  • (2) Repeated transient ischemic attacks in the same territory with minimal lesions on arteriography and non-homogeneous plaque on duplex scan; 2.
  • (3) The coronary arteriography reveals a spasm in the normal left anterior descendens artery.
  • (4) One hundred ten atherosclerotic occlusions of the internal carotid artery (ICA) were found in 106 patients in group I. Fifty-one percent of these patients had a history of stroke before arteriography, 24% had transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) or amaurosis fugax (AF), and 12% had nonhemispheric symptoms.
  • (5) Three randomized clinical trials indicate that rate of progression of atherosclerosis, as defined by arteriography, can be reduced, and existing lumen obstruction decreased.
  • (6) Coronary arteriography was performed in all patients before surgery: nine had one-vessel, 11 had two-vessel, and 11 had three-vessel disease.
  • (7) Thus pyelographic arteriography made it possible to avoid renal arteriograms in almost all our patients.
  • (8) We tested the effectiveness of an individually delivered behavioral multicomponent smoking intervention (SI) against offering advice only (AO) to 267 patients after coronary arteriography.
  • (9) Cardiac applications proven clinically useful to date include intravenous and reduced-contrast load direct left ventriculography, aortic root bypass graft visualization, and selective coronary arteriography, which allows quantification of arterial stenoses and flow reserve.
  • (10) Among 1,041 patients less than 45 years old who underwent coronary arteriography from 1972 to 1977, left main coronary stenosis greater than or equal to 50 percent was present in 31 men (3.4 percent) and in 10 women (7.2 percent, P less than 0.05).
  • (11) The importance of arteriography is emphasized since the clinical syndrome may be nonspecific and myelographic or plain x-ray changes may be minimal.
  • (12) Knowledge of the SMA and aortic lumen diameter has been helpful in selecting the proper catheter and approach for selective arteriography.
  • (13) Arteriography of the carotid artery and cerebral scintigraphy are the methods used to diagnose TIVS.
  • (14) In severe hemoptysis, selective bronchial arteriography with embolization of the bleeding vessel can be a life-saving procedure.
  • (15) Thus, the addition of heparin to nonionic contrast media at concentrations of 5 U per ml may be an easy measure with which to prevent blood clotting and reduce thromboembolic complications during coronary arteriography.
  • (16) Coronary arteriography which was performed in 6 patients revealed three-vessel disease in 5, and two-vessel disease in one.
