Study registry of heart imaging for suspected blocked heart flow
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study collects results from two types of heart imaging—cardiac PET and CardioFlux magnetocardiography—in people with suspected reduced blood flow to the heart. It may help researchers better understand which imaging findings match coronary ischemia and how the tests compare.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You agree to sign informed consent to join the study
- You are age 40 or older when you enroll
- A clinician thinks you may have reduced blood flow to the heart and ordered a cardiac PET scan
- You finished a cardiac PET scan within the last 2 weeks before enrolling
- You can fit into the CardioFlux device and can lie flat (on your back) for 5 minutes
- You do not have certain metal/ferromagnetic implants that interfere with the scan (and you do not have ongoing atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter)

This study tests a special imaging scan to measure how well blood flows through heart muscle in patients with chest pain and suspected heart disease. The results may help doctors better diagnose heart conditions without invasive procedures.
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 tests a new, noninvasive way to detect reduced blood flow to the heart (myocardial ischemia) using a magnetic heart scan called MCG. If you have chest pain or similar symptoms but your narrowed arteries are not severely blocked, this trial may help diagnose your condition more accurately.
This study uses heart MRIs to learn more about people who have heart failure and significant blockages in their coronary arteries. If you are planning to have bypass surgery or a stent, the study may be a fit.
This study uses two imaging scans to see if parts of your heart muscle are still alive but not working well. This could help doctors decide if you might benefit from heart bypass surgery.
This trial uses a special heart MRI to look for blockages in the arteries that can cause chest pain or shortness of breath. It is for people who have not been diagnosed with heart disease before and are already scheduled for a catheterization procedure.
