Dear Manasa,
There are several options.
1. His doctor may want to perform more specific test, such as stress echo or nuclear test
2. direct angiography may be the other option
3. if there are some insurance problems with angiography or other tests, or in case of low risk, treatment modification can be done
Wishing a good health to you uncle
