Cerebral arteriography is a reference examination in medical imaging. This examination is performed to allow the diagnosis and therapeutic management of patients with vascular pathologies. It is most often accompanied by a situation of stress, anxiety and apprehension related to the course of the examination or the announcement of the results. These situations generate physiological reactions in patients, making the performance of cerebral arteriography more complex. In order to improve the quality of care for patients undergoing this invasive examination, it is proposed to use two non-medicinal techniques known for their soothing and relaxing properties: aromatherapy and music therapy alone or in combination. These two techniques will help to establish a common thread from the preparation of the patient before the examination to his return to the post-interventional surveillance room.
