Non-directional blood velocity of left internal mammary bypass grafts was non-invasively studied with the Doppler ultrasonic probe. Thirteen of 14 subjects had angiographic evidence of bypass graft patency and their Doppler signals demonstrated high amplitude phasic blood velocities. A single patient with proximal left internal mammary arterial graft occlusion manifested marked attenuation of Doppler blood velocity signals. It is concluded that this technic offers a potential for ambulatory and in-office screening of internal mammary artery bypass graft function.
