Somtimes diabetes patients do not have chest pain even though there is blockage in heart arteries . If TMT is positive invasive angiogram is the best possible investigation. If u do not want to get it done then go for CT angiography. Accuracy of CT is not as good as invasive angiogram . Choice is yours .
