Hello,
You mentioned his stress test is positive and if it's positive then it's an indication for angiography, for clearance for surgery. Because unrecognized blockages may create a problem during surgery, if he has blockages then he may need angioplasty or bypass surgery depending upon the blockages.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Sagar Makode
