Several principles are fundamental to selective angiography. - First a selective catheter should never be advanced forward without being led by a guidewire. - Second hemodynamic assessment at the tip of the catheter should be performed before any forward injection of contrast or saline to avoid inadvertent injection of clot from the catheter tip barotrauma to the vessel wall athe-roembolism or vessel dissection. - Third gentle movement of the catheter is important to allow torque to be transmitted to the distal tip. Torque response is determined by catheter polymer characteristics and the presence or absence of a braid. - Fourth polymer-based hydrophilic catheters markedly improve tracking and can be essential for access of a contralateral limb in a patient with a steep aortoiliac bifurcation or distal aortoiliac tortuosity. In regions of the vascular tree with substantial vessel overlap or eclipsed by a metal prosthesis a clear understanding of the anatomy in a 3-dimensional plane is important to profile the vessels correctly and to obtain definitive diagnostic information. The anatomy can vary significantly from patient to patient so there is no definitive menu
