Relating to or produced by angiocardiography, an imaging technique that visualizes blood vessels and heart chambers using X-rays and contrast dye.
From 'angiocardiography' (vessel + heart + imaging) + '-ic' (relating to). Modern medical term combining Greek and Latin roots for imaging cardiovascular structures.
Before CT and MRI became common, 'angiocardiographic' imaging was the gold standard for seeing inside the heart—doctors would inject dye into arteries and watch it move through the heart on fluoroscope, essentially creating a 'real movie' of your beating heart.
