What Causes Dye Not Able To Flow In Angiogram?

I went in for an Angiogram but it took the doctor a long time to find the artery and then the dye would not flow with the blood and the test was cancelled without result. What might the cause be of the dye not being able to flow as I understand is the case in most Angiograms?
