1 Ultrafast Computed Tomographic Scanning to Assess Patency of Coronary Artery Stents in Bypass Grafts 
MARK A. NYMAN, M.D., ROBERT S. SCHWARTZ, M.D., JEROME F. BREEN, M.D., KIRK N. GARRATT, M.D., DAVID R. HOLMES, M.D.  Mayo Clinic Proceedings  Volume 68, Issue 10, Pages (October 1993) DOI: /S (12) Copyright © 1993 Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research Terms and Conditions

2 Fig. 1 Ultrafast computed tomographic scans of upper thorax of 71-year-old man with atypical chest pain before (A) and after (B) administration of contrast medium, showing diagonal vein graft with stent. A 40-ml contrast bolus was administered through peripheral vein at 10 ml/s. Scans were 50 ms, and 8-mm-thick cross sections were made. A, Metal tines of stent visible in vein graft (arrow). B, With contrast medium, stent opacifies, an outcome that indicates good flow.
