This study prospectively evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of 64-slice computed tomographic angiography (CTA) in assessing the patency of coronary artery bypass grafts compared with invasive coronary angiography. In total 147 bypass grafts (100 venous grafts and 47 mammary artery grafts) were evaluated in 50 consecutive patients. Contrast-enhanced 64-slice CTA was performed and compared with invasive angiography. The computed tomographic angiographic scan protocol used 64- × 0.5-mm slice collimation and 0.33-second gantry rotation time during simultaneous electrocardiographic gating. Patients with a heart rate >65 beats/min received β blockers. Overall 145 of 147 bypass grafts (98.6%) were detected by CTA; 2 nonvisualized grafts were occluded at the time of invasive angiography. Of the grafts visualized, 28 were totally occluded, 103 were patent, and 14 had significant stenoses that were confirmed by invasive angiography. Ninety-five percent (111 of 117) of patent grafts demonstrated good run-off distal to anastomoses but without an ability to accurately evaluate the presence of retrograde flow; 83% (97 of 117) of distal anastomoses were adequately evaluated, whereas the remaining 17% (20 of 117) were not well visualized due to vascular clips and/or calcification artifacts. Two grafts were not demonstrated by invasive angiography but were detected by CTA and found to be widely patent. In conclusion, multidetector 64-slice CTA is a valuable tool for direct visualization of coronary bypass grafts and assessment of their patency. Dysfunctional bypass grafts can be detected with high diagnostic accuracy.
