Modern medical technology never ceases to amaze me. In the course of my work I get to see a lot of interesting things. It's somebody's heart right there for us to see. Can you see the blockages?
Unfortunately, you need to get a tube stuck up your groin artery and threaded up to your heart in order to get this picture. It's a lot more invasive than just getting an MRI or a CT, but it's still amazing.
BTW, the blockages are the places where you see the little branches narrow down. The arteries should get gradually smaller and not have those unusual narrow spots in them.
