Suggest A Safe Alternative For Invasive Angiogram.

I live in Goa, India. I had a quad. bypass when I lived in Italy ten years ago.
I am doing some checks at the moment and it seems that I need an angiogram.
I am very reluctant to do the invasive angiogram. What do you suggest and where is the nearest place in which I can do this?
Thank you
