Heart scan study for retired NFL players

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 trial offers heart screening for people who were formerly high-intensity athletes, like professional or college-level competitors. The goal is to catch heart problems early and lower the risk of sudden heart issues.

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 blood samples and CT scans from people with stable coronary artery disease to find new ways to predict and prevent future heart problems. If you've had or are about to have a cardiac CT and have blood stored, you might be able to join.

This study follows up with people who participated in a heart-health study between 2012 and 2014. Researchers will use heart imaging and exercise tests to check your cardiovascular health and learn more about heart disease risk in athletes.

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.
