Overview
Cardiac catheterization or angiogram may be done to rule out coronary artery disease (CAD) as the etiology of heart failure in alcoholic cardiomyopathy. In addition to ruling out CAD, cardiac catheteriation may also be helpful to assess cardiac output, cardiac hemodynamics and filling pressures.
Other Imaging Findings
Possible cardiac catheterization findings in alcoholic cardiomyopathy include:
- Non-obstructive coronary artery disease
- Increased LV size
- Regional wall motion abnormalities
- Mild mitral regurgitation
- Elevated LV end-diastolic pressure, right heart pressure, wedge pressure and pulmonary artery pressure
