title: [Indications for selective coronary angiography (author's transl)].
abstract: At the present time, selective coronary angiography is the only diagnostic possibility for establishing the severity, extent and localization of coronary arteriosclerosis in the living human. It has led to the development of coronary surgery which is a significant acquisition to the treatment of coronary heart disease. In the differential diagnosis of obscure electrocardiographic changes and other clinical cardiological pictures, it is a considerable help. Selective coronary angiography carries relatively little risk if suitable personnel and technical facilities are available and a careful indication for its performance is observed.
