Ct coronary angiogram
In 2019 I had a ct angiogram.. when they injected the contrast my heart rate shot up immensely but the technician did nothing to control the rate, they didnt even think of giving me betablocker n letting me relax.. My images of coronary arteries were generated at a rate of 115 which shud have been 75 ideally.. report was okay... I want to know how drastically this would have affected the report findings? I am wondering about it coz i have some typical angina like pains n might have to go for it again.

Talk to experienced doctor online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
CT coronary angiography (CTCA) is highly dependent on heart rate. Ideally, a heart rate of around 60-75 beats per minute (bpm) is desired to obtain clear images. A higher heart rate, such as the 115 bpm you mentioned, can significantly impact image quality and the accuracy of the findings.
Discuss your previous CTCA and the current angina-like symptoms with your cardiologist.They can evaluate the need for repeat imaging or alternative tests based on your symptoms and medical history.
