CT Renal Angiography: How It Helps in Diagnosing Kidney Issues

Your kidneys play a critical role in filtering waste, maintaining blood pressure, and keeping your body in balance. When kidney-related symptoms arise or vascular issues are suspected, CT Renal Angiography provides a detailed, non-invasive way to visualize the blood vessels supplying your kidneys. At Usmanpura Imaging Center, Ahmedabad, we use advanced imaging to help doctors detect kidney issues early and accurately.

What is CT Renal Angiography?

CT Renal Angiography is a special type of computed tomography (CT) scan that uses contrast dye to create clear, high-resolution images of the renal arteries—the blood vessels that supply your kidneys. It’s a vital tool for diagnosing conditions that affect blood flow to the kidneys, which can directly impact kidney function.

What Does It Help Diagnose?

CT Abdomen with Oral Contrast is widely used to evaluate and diagnose:

1. • Renal artery stenosis (narrowing of the kidney arteries)
2. • Aneurysms or vascular malformations in the renal arteries
3. • Kidney tumors involving blood vessels
4. • Uncontrolled high blood pressure (possibly due to renal artery issues)
5. • Renal vein thrombosis (blood clots in the kidney veins)
6. • Pre-surgical vascular mapping for kidney transplant or procedures

It’s also recommended for patients who have chronic kidney disease (CKD) of unclear origin or who are not responding to conventional treatment for hypertension.

How is the Procedure Performed?

At Usmanpura Imaging Center:

1. • A contrast dye is injected into a vein to enhance the visibility of blood vessels.
2. • You will lie comfortably on the scanning table, and the CT scanner will take rapid cross-sectional images.
3. • The scan is completed within 10–15 minutes and is painless and non-invasive.
4. • Our expert radiologists analyze the images for detailed vascular assessment.
