Modern atlas of invasive coronary angiography views: a practical approach for fellows and young interventionalists.

Although computed tomographic (CT) assessment of coronary arteries is rapidly becoming a first line imaging technique for the assessment of coronary artery disease (CAD), coronary angiography (CA) still represents the gold standard method, especially for guiding percutaneous coronary artery interventions (PCI). Together with the basic principles of radioprotection and modern radiological equipment's management, the average invasive cardiology should know how to replicate in clinical practice, both the old standard and the new and previously under-used projections and should need to learn their usefulness at both diagnostic and interventional levels. The present article is aimed to present an updated practical overview of modern available angiographic views for fellows and young interventionalists.
