DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.953109
Abstract: Cardiac surgeons face a significant degree of uncertainty when deciding upon coronary artery bypass graft configurations for patients with coronary artery disease. This leads to significant variation in preferred configuration between different surgeons for a… read more here.
