Özet

Objective: The main purpose of this study was to assess the patency of left internal thoracic artery (LITA) graft by using color Doppler ultrasonography (CDUSG) and furthermore to determine the sensitivity and specificity of CDUSG for patency by using coronary angiography as the reference standard.
