In this study, 61 patients who underwent coronary angiography from March 2018 to August 2019 were divided into Group I (Radial, n=34 patients) and Group II (Femoral, n=27 patients), and compared and analyzed methods using radial and femoral arteries when coronary angiography was performed. As a result of comparative analysis, Catheter usage was reduced in the examination using radial artery, and in the abnormal shape of blood vessels, Loops arterial abnormalities were more in the radial artery (20.6% vs, 0%, p<0.05), and it was found that the abnormal shape of the radial vessels increased with age. 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s or older (0%, 18.2%, 25.0%, 100%)
