Year test post stenting
My father age 58 years had heart attack in 2016 with three stents. Every year we go for ecg echo and tmt test which is normal. He is on blood thinner, diabetic medicine and bp medicine. No smoking or alchohol. Do we need to go for ct angio for any further blockage or stress tmt is enuff as its been 5 year of stent.
Last stress test was 18 months back.

Stress TMT is good enough. In fact it is more reliable than CT angiography as TMT is a functional test
