Investigating the peri-saphenous vein graft fat attenuation index on computed tomography angiography: relationship with progression of venous coronary artery bypass graft disease and temporal trends
A synchronism was found in the FAI change trend between native coronary artery and venous graft, which both decreased over time. The CCTA-derived FAI of venous grafts showed the potential of demonstrating SVG disease progression and graft anastomosis served as the optimal measured location.
