We use Dye and the procedure is known as Cardiac Angiography. Please type" Cardiac Angiography Procedure" and search, this will help you a lot.

See a heart specialist. He'll first give you a stress test, somewhat like jogging. If he thinks there may be a problem, he'll do an EKG, just some wires stuck to you recording your, heart rate. If needed, he'll inject a dye into you veins he can see by x-ray, no pain, then further procedures if necessary.
First, have your doctor refer you to a heart specialist.
