Study of heart metabolism in ischemic heart disease using advanced imaging
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial uses a special imaging technique (hyperpolarized MRSI) to study metabolism in the heart muscle of people with chronic heart failure caused by ischemic heart disease. It aims to help doctors better understand how the heart uses energy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have chronic heart failure
- Your heart's pumping ability (LVEF) is between 10% and 60%
- You have ischemic heart disease and are being evaluated at Aarhus University Hospital
- You are 18 years or older and speak Danish
- You do not use insulin for diabetes, and your kidney function is good enough

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study uses a special imaging test (PET/MR) to check if damaged heart muscle is still alive and can recover. It is for people with severe blocked arteries and weak heart pumping function who are planning bypass surgery or stem cell treatment.
This trial tests whether high-dose adenosine during a heart scan can better predict how well your heart muscle might recover, compared to standard dosing. The information could help doctors personalize treatment for people newly diagnosed with heart failure and a low ejection fraction.
This study tests a new MRI method that uses a safe, natural substance (pyruvate) to take detailed pictures of the heart and metabolism. It may help doctors better understand heart disease, diabetes, and related conditions.
This Phase 1 study tests whether a specialized heart MRI injection can show how the heart uses energy. It may help researchers better understand heart muscle thickening and related conditions, and identify heart-related changes early.
This study uses special imaging scans (MRI and PET) to look at the health of the heart muscle in people with advanced heart failure caused by blocked arteries. The goal is to better predict recovery after bypass surgery.
This study uses a special MRI scan to look at heart muscle metabolism in people with heart failure caused by blocked arteries. It may help doctors better understand which heart tissue is still alive and could recover.
