Peripheral angiography is a minimally invasive diagnostic procedure used to examine blood vessels outside of the heart, such as those in the legs and arms. A thin catheter is inserted through an artery or vein, typically in the groin area, and guided to the affected area where dye is injected to highlight the blood vessels on X-ray. This allows doctors to identify any blockages, narrowings, or other abnormalities that may be causing symptoms.
