Informed consent is necessary, because an arteriogram requires the injection of a radiopaque dye into the blood vessel.

An arteriogram is an imaging test that uses x-rays and a special dye to see inside the arteries. It can be used to view arteries in the heart, brain, kidney, and other parts of the body. Related tests include: Aortic angiography (chest or abdomen). An angiogram, also known as an arteriogram, is an X-ray of the arteries and veins, used to detect blockage or narrowing of the vessels. This procedure involves inserting a thin, flexible tube into an artery in the leg and injecting a contrast dye. The contrast dye makes the arteries and veins visible on the X-ray. The arteriogram is performed in the Radiology Department on the B1 level of University Hospital, or on the fourth floor of the CVC (Cardiovascular Center). The angiogram takes about one to two hours to finish.
