Abstract

Objective: Radial endothelial dysfunction may occur after transradial coronary angiography (CAG). This study aimed to make a comparative evaluation of the radial endothelial functions before and after catheterization between three different radial access sites: left radial (LR) artery, left distal radial (LDR) artery, and right radial (RR) artery.
