Dear Sir
Thanks for your query.
Both facts as told by your doctors are correct.
Dye used in angiography can cause kidney damage and
CABG in patients with damages kidneys carried much higher risk (as high as 7 times.)
Hence, if kidney status can be improved prior to surgery, it should be improved.
Sincerely
Sukhvinder
