To assess the diagnostic accuracy of 64-MDCT in symptomatic patients after CABG and to explore the advantages of the 64-MDCT comparing with invasive coronary angiography (CA) procedure. MATERIAL AND METHODS: From December 2008 until February 2010, 37 post-CABG (32 men, mean age 63.5 +/- 9 years after CABG ) symptomatic patients (pts) (CCS III or more) were scanned on a 64-MDCT (GE LIGHT SPEED) prior to CA. Premedication with i.v B blockers was administrated In all with heart rate>70bpm. Patients with arrhythmia and those with severe coronary calcifications were excluded.
