hi,
your uncle CT coronary angiography report shows significant disease in LAD.
For that he may need angioplasty.
so you first consult cardiologist and under go coronary angiography if it shows significant disease in other vessels also he may need CABG/ multi vessel stenting based on age , risk factors like Diabetes .
