Abstract
An angiography apparatus includes a bed having a top on which a patient to be examined lies down, a substantially C-shaped C-arm, and an X-ray generating means and X-ray detection means which are arranged to oppose one end and the other end of the C-arm. According to this angiography apparatus, in chasing and imaging the flow of a contrast medium injected into the patient, the C-arm can be arbitrarily moved in a direction. In addition, according to the angiography apparatus of this invention, by displaying a simulated image of the flow of the contrast medium, an operator can simulate contrast medium chase imaging before actual contrast medium chase imaging.
