Getting old but not past it

Two of my brothers have had stems fitted because of partly blocked arteries. One was 73% blocked and the other 90%. We have genetic cholesterol problems in our family and I have been on statins for a good 20 years now but how do I know my arteries are clear?
I have 6 monthly blood tests and every time my doctors says I am within the limit.
So my question is: can I ask my doctor for a proper test to check my arteries and what does it involve?
