Plaque registry for adults getting a heart CT scan
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study collects information from adults undergoing a clinically needed heart CT scan (coronary CTA) to build a database about plaque in the heart arteries. It may help researchers better understand heart disease patterns and improve future care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be over 18 years old
- Agree to participate by signing written consent
- You are scheduled to get a coronary CTA that is already medically needed
- You do not have a possible current heart emergency like unstable angina or a heart attack right now
- You are not pregnant (or you can confirm you are not pregnant)

This study tracks coronary plaque (fatty deposits in heart arteries) in South Asian adults and compares them with people of other backgrounds. You may be asked to have a special heart CT scan and basic measurements to help researchers understand differences in heart disease risk.
This study looks at people who had a heart attack and had a special CT scan (CT angiography) before or during the years leading up to it. Researchers will use the scan and computer analysis (AI) to better understand heart plaque and how it may relate to heart attacks.
This is a research registry that follows people who are already getting a CT scan of their heart arteries for medical reasons. It aims to better understand how these scans relate to future heart outcomes, while collecting follow-up health information.
This study uses a special heart CT scan (coronary CT angiography) to look at plaque and how blood flows in people with coronary artery disease. It may help match your scan results with heart measurements and guide future care decisions.
This study looks at how likely people are to have coronary artery disease (heart artery blockage) based on results from CT scans. It may help doctors better estimate risk and decide what follow-up care you may need.
This trial builds and tests an AI system using information from a heart CT scan to help evaluate coronary artery disease (clogged heart arteries). If you need a CT coronary angiography for medical reasons, this may help improve how such scans are analyzed and used in care.
