Brief Answer: Mismatch between report detail & impression Detailed Answer: Dear Sir There is something amiss somewhere. The report which you have uploaded says that all arteries (vessels) are normal but in impression it mentions that one of the vessels is diseased and angioplasty is recommended for same. I would recommend you to go to the concerned cardiologist and discuss. This may be a typographical error. No procedure is indicated if all vessels are indeed normal. If they give you another report, feel free to discuss about it. Sincerely Sukhvinder
