Cite This Study

Kocher et al. (2022) conducted a review in Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Computed tomography (CT) and CT angiographic (CTA) imaging was evaluated. Computed tomography (CT) and CT angiographic (CTA) imaging can provide noninvasive assessment of vascular and bony structures to enhance preoperative surgical planning and risk assessment for CABG.
