Study to assess heart artery blockage risk from CT scans
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 21 years old or older
- You already had a heart CT scan done to check for artery blockage
- Your CT scan was either CT angiography (with dye) or a non-dye CT
- You are able and willing to undergo cardiac CT procedures if needed

This study uses a CT heart scan (with a calcium score) to better understand risk in people with suspected coronary artery disease. You may be asked to have scan-based measurements and then be followed for at least a year.
This study looks at people who are having a CT scan of their heart because it’s medically needed. Researchers will use the scan results to better predict future cardiovascular outcomes and improve how care decisions are made.
This trial looks at people with a blockage in a heart artery of 50% or more. It tests a new way to check the blockage using a special CT scan. This could help decide the best treatment to prevent future heart problems.
This study compares two types of heart scans to see which one better finds blockages in the arteries of people with chest discomfort or shortness of breath when active. You will have both a special CT scan and a PET/CT scan to check the health of your heart arteries.
This study uses a CT scan of your heart (CCTA) and advanced computer analysis to see how well it can predict heart risks compared to detailed inside-look tests (IVUS, OCT, NIRS). If you have chest pain and have had certain heart scans, this trial may help doctors understand your condition better.
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.
