Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I would like to tell you that some people are more prone to cholesterol deposits even if they are leading healthy lifestyle and abnormal TMT means he might had significant ECG changes during the test which are indicating inducable ischemia and need further evaluation of coronary artery disease.

It's recommended for him to get an angiography done for proper evaluation of the disease and treatment.

I hope this information will answer your query.

Kind Regards
Dr. Bhanu Partap
