Abstract

Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery is the standard treatment method of advanced coronary artery disease. In the past, invasive coronary angiography was used to assess the status of the grafts and check out if the graft was occluded. Recently, multidetector computed tomography (CT) with electrocardiographic (ECG) gating has become an important diagnostic tool for the evaluation of CABGs in postoperative settings. In this chapter, based on a case of a patient after a CABG surgery, we will discuss the coronary CT angiography (CCTA) imaging evaluation of CABGs.
