The radiation that you get from an angiogram , is so small less than 10 mSv , which is way below any sort of danger levels.
Also the effect , of radiation on body is so minimal from an angiogram , than the benefit that you get by doing a test like that .
So absolutely nothing to worry about , also this is a one off procedure , and you won’t be doing it frequently .
