Hi Sireesha avr
Welcome to HealthcareMagic.
If he has no symptoms of angina , he may not need an angiography now. As he has a heart disease , his TMT would be positive.However seeing the TMT report , we can surely judge the importance of angiography now.That can be well done by your cardiologist.
I advise you to visit your Cardiologist and go as per his personal opinion.
Hope this information is useful to you and others.
Take care
