Cardiac MRI test in people with prior heart attack
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study uses special heart MRI scans to improve how heart images are made and interpreted. You may be asked to undergo MRI testing to help compare scans in people with a past heart attack and healthy volunteers.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be able and willing to say “yes” by giving informed consent
- You are either a healthy volunteer or have had a previous heart attack
- You must be able to safely do an MRI scan (no MRI-incompatible implants/conditions)
- You should not have bad claustrophobia (strong fear of being in enclosed spaces)
- You must not be pregnant
- Your body size must allow comfortable positioning in the MRI scanner, and your kidneys must be healthy enough for possible contrast dye

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study follows people 18 and older who have had a specific type of heart attack (STEMI). It aims to better understand them using a heart MRI scan, which may help improve how these patients are evaluated and cared for.
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 study tests whether magnetocardiography—a scan that measures heart signals using magnets—can more accurately identify myocardial infarction (heart attack). It may help doctors detect heart attacks faster and more accurately using safer, non-invasive testing.
This study uses heart MRI scans to find markers that predict outcomes in people with ischemic heart disease, including those who have had a heart attack. It may help doctors better understand your condition and guide future care.
This trial compares using a cardiac MRI before the standard catheterization (angiogram) in people with a suspected heart attack that doesn't show the typical ECG changes. It aims to see if the MRI can help guide decisions and avoid unnecessary procedures.
This study uses magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to take detailed pictures of the heart. It aims to improve how doctors use heart MRI to diagnose and manage heart conditions.
