The technique was first developed in 1927 by the [[Portugal|Portuguese]] physician and neurologist [[Egas Moniz]] at the [[University of Lisbon]] to provide contrasted X-ray [[cerebral angiography]] in order to diagnose several kinds of nervous diseases, such as tumors, artery disease and [[arteriovenous malformations]]. Moniz is recognized as the pioneer in this field.<ref name="pmid11619209">{{cite journal | vauthors = Berrios GE | title = The origins of psychosurgery: Shaw, Burckhardt and Moniz | journal = History of Psychiatry | volume = 8 | issue = 29 pt 1 | pages = 61–81 | date = March 1997 | pmid = 11619209 | doi = 10.1177/0957154X9700802905 | s2cid = 22225524 }}</ref> He performed the first cerebral angiogram in Lisbon in 1927, and [[Reynaldo dos Santos]] performed the first aortogram in the same city in 1929. In fact, many current angiography techniques were developed by the Portuguese at the University of Lisbon. For example, in 1932, [[Fausto Lopo de Carvalho|Lopo de Carvalho]] performed the first pulmonary angiogram via venous puncture of the superior member. In 1948 the first cavogram was performed by [[Sousa Pereira]]. With the introduction of the [[Seldinger technique]] in 1953, the procedure became markedly safer as no sharp introductory devices needed to remain inside the vascular lumen. Radial access technique for angiography can be traced back to 1989, when [[Lucien Campeau]] first cannulated the radial artery to perform a coronary angiogram.<ref>{{cite journal |vauthors =Campeau, L|title=Percutaneous radial artery approach for coronary angiography|journal=Catheterization and Cardiovascular Diagnosis |volume=16 |pages=3–7 |year=1989 |issue=1 |pmid=2912567 |doi = 10.1002/ccd.1810160103|doi-access=free }}</ref>
