What Does TMT Result Showing Mild Positive For Inducible Ischemia Mean?

Hi! My age is 37 years. I had undergone TMT as regular checkups and this time the report came mild positive for inducible ischemia. Doctor suggested me to go for another test namely CT Angiogram, to understand further. Kindly suggest as to what is the exact meaning of this result and how to take care.

Thank you for the concern. Mild positive means with some more efforts your heart receives less blood so for that you have to go for ct angiogram to know the condition of the blood vessels which supplies the heart. If anything abnormal than you have to start treatment. And start some aerobic exercise.
