Can a blood test detect coronary heart disease?

Patient's question:

Doctor, my father is a patient with high blood pressure. My father has had high blood pressure for over ten years. Recently, he often says that the area around his heart hurts, and he suspects he might have coronary heart disease. I would like to ask, can blood tests thoroughly check for coronary heart disease?

Doctor's answer:

Coronary heart disease is a very dangerous disease. Careful examination of coronary heart disease cannot be detected through blood tests. The best careful examination method is to perform coronary angiography. The pathogenesis and etiology of coronary heart disease are not entirely clear, but many risk factors that cause coronary heart disease mainly include hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, smoking, obesity, lack of physical exercise, etc. Patients can take many compound Danshen dripping pills and Xiaoxin pain tablets for treatment.
