Abstract

Coronary angiography is increasingly performed pre-operatively to investigate for the presence of coronary artery disease. As peri-operative physicians, we need a basic understanding of coronary angiography and terminology used. This tutorial aims to give an overview of coronary anatomy and provide a working knowledge of coronary angiography.
