Tracking coronary artery changes with repeat heart CT scans
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study follows people who have had multiple heart CT scans (CCTA) to see how plaque (fatty deposits) in the arteries changes over time. By being in this study, you help researchers better predict heart disease progression.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have had more than one CCTA scan (a special CT scan of the heart arteries).
- Your CCTA scans were clear enough for doctors to analyze.
- You are willing to be part of a research group that tracks changes in your heart scans over time.
- You can provide access to your medical records and imaging results.

This study uses repeat CT scans of the heart to see how plaque buildup changes over time in people with mild, non-blocking coronary artery disease. It may help doctors decide on better treatments to prevent future heart problems.
This study uses CT scans and special camera images inside your arteries to watch how plaque buildup in heart arteries changes over time. It may help you understand your risk and guide future treatment.
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.
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 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 tests a new way to use CT scans to look at both the structure of your heart arteries and how well blood flows through them. It may help doctors get a more complete picture of coronary artery disease without extra procedures.
