multiple choice question
what is coronary bypass surgery?
a procedure in which dye is injected into a vessel to visualize potential blockages in the vessel
a procedure in which a blockage in a coronary vessel is bypassed by attaching a section of another vessel to either side of the blockage
a procedure in which a stent is inserted into a vessel in order to widen the vessel
a procedure in which a catheter is inserted into a vessel in order to visualize the lumen of the vessel

Coronary bypass surgery creates a new path for blood around a blocked coronary artery by using a section of another blood - vessel. The other options describe different vascular procedures like angiography (dye injection), angioplasty (stent insertion), and catheter - based visualization.

Answer:
