Coronary CT angiography is a diagnostic medical procedure that provides detailed images of the coronary arteries. This technique uses computed tomography to visualize blood flow and detect potential blockages or narrowings in the arteries that could lead to heart disease.

During the procedure, an intravenous contrast agent is administered to highlight the coronary arteries and obtain more accurate images. Coronary CT angiography is a non-invasive alternative to traditional coronary angiography, as it does not require the insertion of a catheter into the arteries.
