Non-contrast heart MRI test in dialysis patients
Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial checks whether a new kind of heart MRI (done without contrast dye) can help doctors see heart changes in people receiving hemodialysis. It may help improve how heart health is measured in dialysis care, especially for people with limited time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You’ve been on hemodialysis for more than 3 months
- Your care team expects you may pass away within the next 12 months
- You can clearly understand the study and give consent
- You agree that, after death, your heart may be donated for research
- You must be able to understand explanations in English (written and spoken)

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study uses MRI (a scanning test) to develop new ways to measure heart function in both healthy volunteers and people with suspected or known heart disease. It may help researchers create better heart tests that could improve future diagnosis and monitoring.
This trial uses a new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) method to look at kidney function. It may help doctors better understand and monitor kidney problems.
This study checks whether a new, higher-detail heart MRI technique can produce reliable heart images. You might help researchers improve how doctors see and assess the heart during routine MRI care.
This study adds an MRI and other measurements to a heart registry to better understand heart function. You might benefit by getting detailed heart and kidney measurements, but you must meet safety and eligibility rules (like blood pressure, BMI, and being off heart medicines).
This study uses MRI scans to measure how much salt (sodium) builds up in soft tissues in people with kidney disease and related heart conditions. It may help researchers understand what’s happening in the body and how treatment or changes in care affect salt buildup.
This study tests advanced MRI techniques to better understand heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), a condition where the heart pumps normally but still doesn't work well. It may help improve diagnosis and treatment for patients with this type of heart failure.
