Blockage recheck and treatment

2021-12-24 17:30:46
Last Angiography did 2 months ago and found blockage 60-70% level and after that treatment started for the same. Is it any other method to check current blockage level and improvements if any during this period? Please suggest and guide.

Block will neither increase nor decrease in such a short span. No need to reckeck. If you want to see functional significance of the block then you need functional test such as TMT or stress Echo or PET stress MPI depending upon the clinical scenario

You can observe symptoms. If symptoms such as exercise induced chest pain or breathlessness worsens , go ahead with angioplasty.
