Hi.
Thanks for choosing HealthcareMagic for your query,
As your doctor have opted for angiogram after stress thallium test that means that there is something grossly wrong with heart.Most likely the doctor is suspecting block in coronary artery.sensitivity of CAG is more than 99% while stress thallium is about 95%.
Please attach the report of stress thallium and mention the ejection fraction for further advice.

Waiting.
