I have never seen conduit for by-pass.
mportal (asker) May 1, 2015:
I think so - so is that how you'd translate 'conduits', then, 'by-pass grafts'? Perhaps 'conduits', here, is a kind of shorthand for that?
Katarina Kvarnhult Apr 14, 2015:
Hello, I believe they intend a doppler examination of the three by-pass grafts.

Note from asker:
In this instance, I think Katarina is right. I agree it can -probably usually does - mean vessels, though.
