Ct scan to detect heart artery blockages
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a non-invasive CT scan method to detect blockages in the heart arteries in people with suspected stable coronary artery disease. The goal is to find a safe and accurate way to diagnose without invasive procedures.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You are being evaluated for suspected stable coronary artery disease (blockages in heart arteries) without other major heart conditions
- You have no active infections or cancer
- If you are a woman who could become pregnant, you are not pregnant and not planning to be within 6-12 months
- You have not had prior heart procedures like stents, bypass surgery, valve surgery, or a pacemaker/defibrillator
- You are not currently in another drug or device study and haven't been in the last 3 months

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.
This trial uses special imaging to look at how blood flows through the heart's arteries. It aims to see if certain blood flow patterns can predict where harmful plaque (fatty buildups) may grow, which could help prevent future heart problems.
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.
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 trial is testing whether a special heart CT scan (coronary CT angiography) can help doctors better understand and treat calcium buildup in your heart arteries. If you have a type of heart disease that might need a stent or other procedure, this study could help decide the best approach.
This trial studies a heart CT scan technique to help doctors better understand coronary artery blockages. It may help guide treatment choices for people with angina (chest pain) who are at intermediate to high risk.
