In coronary artery bypass surgery the detection of the target vessels can be difficult due to their intramural location, coverage by adipose tissue, calcification, or fibrous tissue formation. Their identification is especially critical during off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) and minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB) surgeries. Our objectives were to identify whether (1) the epimyocardial use of the broadband linear array transducer CL15-7 allows a clear and rapid identification of the target artery during on-pump coronary bypass (CPB), OPCAB and MIDCAB surgeries; and (2) if this transducer is helpful in investigating the anastomotic morphology with 2D and color flow Doppler.
