Popis:	Left internal mammary artery (LIMA) bypass conduits undergo gradual longitudinal flow transition from the proximal to distal segments, and the diastolic/systolic (D/S) ratios of the flow indices can diagnose graft patency. However, the influence of graft adaptation on this has not been studied. We examined 46 patients with LIMA graft to the left anterior descending artery using a Doppler-tipped guidewire in the proximal, middle, and distal segments; 34 had patent LIMAs (group A: new LIMAs
