LAD : Shows 80% discrete stenosis at its ostium, followed by 75% tubular stenosis in the proximal segment. Rest of the LAD is free of disease.

RCA: Is a dominant artery and shows 50% stenosis distally and extending into the PD.PD branch shows 80% ostial stenosis.
LIMA/RIMA : Normal

Normal left ventricualr systolic function.
Overall LVEF 60%.

2) Normal sized LA,RA and RV with normal RV contarctility.

3) Mild TR.Mild PAH.PASP=33 mm Hg
   Other cardiac valves are normal
4)No clot/vegetation

Can you please explain how to interpret this report and is there no means that she could do only with medication and diet control?
