PET/CT scan study for reduced blood flow in the heart
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study uses a special PET/CT scan that shows how well blood reaches your heart muscle. It may help doctors better assess suspected or known reduced blood flow (ischemic heart disease).
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have known or suspected heart blood-flow problems (ischemic heart disease)
- Your doctor has referred you for an H2O PET scan at Aarhus University Hospital’s Nuclear Medicine/PET center
- You are at least 18 years old
- You do not have severe claustrophobia (fear of enclosed spaces)
- You do not have severe asthma

This study tests how reliable a brain scan called [15O]H2O-PET is for measuring blood flow. It aims to improve our understanding of brain health in people over 60 without diabetes.
This study looks at how a special heart imaging test (PET/CT) can show areas with reduced blood flow. It may help doctors understand your heart’s circulation better and guide future care.
This study tests a new way to measure blood flow in the heart using a special SPECT/CT scan. It is for people who have mild to moderate blockages in their heart arteries and may benefit from more detailed imaging to guide their treatment.
This study looks at specific blood-flow and heart-rhythm signals during an exercise test to find signs of reduced blood flow to the heart. It may help doctors spot heart problems sooner and decide who needs more care.
