To Determine the Difference in the Radiation Exposure, With Low Dose Protocols for Angiography
Sponsor: Dr Bharat Singh Sambyal
Summary
1. The patients suspected coronary artery disease or those needing an angiography as per the inclusion criteria would be included after a 2d echocardiography and treadmill test/ stress myocardial stress imaging (if indicated) after a written and informed consent. 2. Anthropometric and lab paraments would be recorded. 3. Study will have 2 arms. I. A study arm 1 - baseline comparative arm of patients having undergone angiography with standard dose/ old low dose angiography. II. A study arm 2 - a comparative arm where the patients being once eligible for the study; would undergo angiography using the new low dose protocol. 4. Post completion of the sample size the data of each angiographic view would be noted in both the study arms

Conditions
Interventions
Standard Dose Coronary angiography
The radiation exposure of this group would be collected from database of already done studies in the months prior to the initiation of the study (so as to prevent observer bias which may happen once the interventional cardiologist knows his inclusion in study, and may use a shorter or longer cine runs, thus influencing the outcomes). This would best represent the real-world data set, according to the routinely followed standard dose/ older low dose protocol.
New low dose angiography
a comparative arm where the patients being once eligible for the study; would undergo angiography using the new low dose protocol.
