It means that your sister has an Ischemic heart desease and she need to perform a coronarography in order to make the diagnoses. It means that 1 ore more heart arteries aore stenotic, and so the bllod that arrive in the miocard is less that normal. Coronarography will detect the responsible vessel and if possible in the same sesion the doctors can treat it by performing a PTCA procedure, (to put a cardiac stent in the responsible artery most probably LAD in this case)
