Renal Angiogram Cost in Gurgaon, India

The cost of a renal angiogram in Gurgaon typically ranges from $500 to $1,200 USD (about ₹47,400 to ₹1.14 lakh), depending on the hospital, room category and type of procedure.

A typical estimate for a renal angiogram in Gurgaon is around $700 (about ₹66,400). What you pay depends mainly on your own case. If you have a standard scan or scope without sedation, your bill is likely to be closer to $500 (about ₹47,400). It is likely to be nearer $1,200 (about ₹1.14 lakh) if contrast, a tracer, sedation or a biopsy is needed.

When comparing Gurgaon packages for a renal angiogram, check whether each quote includes:

• Specialist consultation
• The test or session itself
• The written report or review
• Any repeat sessions or follow-up

A renal angiogram uses X-rays and contrast dye to picture the kidney arteries, and if one is narrowed it can sometimes be opened up in the same session.

According to Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, the test checks the kidney arteries for narrowing or blockage, and any narrowing found can be treated straight away with a balloon or stent to protect kidney function or lower blood pressure.

A slim tube is passed, normally from the groin, under local anaesthetic, and dye is injected.

The trust names bruising, a collection of blood under the skin and, rarely, a reaction to the dye that can affect the kidneys, so tell staff about kidney issues, diabetes, allergies and blood thinners.

Bed rest for one to two hours is usual, an overnight stay is common and normal activity normally resumes in two to three days.

Flying home: scans and scopes rarely hold up travel, though you should not fly on a day you were sedated, and keep spare days in Gurgaon in case further tests are needed.

A Gurgaon quote for a renal angiogram is normally made up of these items:

• Scan or scope type: plus any contrast agent or tracer.
• Sedation: where needed.
• Specialist reporting: review of the images.
• Diagnostic only or with angioplasty: and stent.
• Day case or overnight: for monitoring.
• Kidney function tests: before and after.
• Type of dye: and hospital.

A diagnostic renal angiogram is a short procedure, so a Gurgaon estimate near the upper end of the range above normally includes angioplasty or a stent.

Scans and diagnostic scopes in Gurgaon are available in hospital departments and stand-alone centres; a hospital setting is easier if a biopsy or treatment may be needed.

NABH, the hospital accreditation board of the Quality Council of India whose standards carry ISQua accreditation, sets the national benchmark for hospitals, and its online directory shows whether a Gurgaon hospital's accreditation is still current.

Gurgaon is part of Delhi NCR, where India's first hospital to gain Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation did so in 2005, and JCI publishes a searchable list of the organisations it currently accredits.

Gurgaon was officially renamed Gurugram by the Haryana government in 2016, so hospital letters, maps and taxi apps may use either name.
