Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a surgical procedure in which blood vessels are taken from other parts of the body, such as the legs, and attached to the coronary arteries to bypass narrowed or blocked vessels. Angioplasty and coronary catheterization are both non-surgical procedures used to diagnose and treat blockages in the coronary arteries. An echocardiogram is a test that uses sound waves to create images of the heart, and is not a surgical procedure.
