Will a Ct Angiography harm my one good kidney?

In 2002 I was told that my right kidney has three blockages. It is currently working at 10%. This has caused high B/P. My Specialist wants me to have a Coronary Ct Angiography to see if there are blockages in the arteries. Will it harm my good kidney?
