please note that LIMA is now called LITA T for thoracic

I was also confused about the III in the IVA/LAD III. Distal 3rd of the LAD would have probably been written as distale III di IVA or IVA distale III though, no?

Selective injection of the left internal mammary artery (LIMA LAD bypass graft)

You should probably specify "LIMA to LAD ramus intermedius branch" for "IVA III.

Selective injection of the left internal mammary artery (LIMA) (arrowhead) was performed by a catheter introduced via the left radial artery.

Over the last two decades, many studies have shown better long-term patency rates and survival in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with left internal mammary artery (LIMA) to the left anterior descending artery (LAD). World-wide, LIMA is accepted as the ‘gold standard’ for surgical revascularisation and its usage has been steadily increasing.

What is LIMA to LAD?
LIMA LAD is a life-saving coronary artery bypass procedure that involves the left internal mammary artery and the left anterior descending artery. It opens the heart’s blood flow, saving the life of the patient.

neutral liz askew : just a comment - don't they mean the distal portion of the LAD?? What is the III all about?

I interpreted it as the ramus intermedius branch. I could be wrong of course.
