Stress heart MRI for better diagnosis of heart artery disease
Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study uses a special stress heart MRI to measure blood flow and find blockages in the arteries that supply your heart. It is for people with chest pain or abnormal EKG results who have risk factors for heart disease, to help doctors diagnose and treat coronary artery disease more accurately.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 35 and 85 years old.
- You have chest pain or an abnormal EKG suggesting possible heart artery blockages.
- You have at least one risk factor for coronary artery disease (e.g., age, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, family history, smoking, etc.).
- You have not had a heart attack in the last 30 days.
- You do not have certain serious heart conditions (like severe valve disease, weak heart muscle, thickened heart muscle, or constrictive pericarditis).
- You are not pregnant and do not have a metal device that could be unsafe for MRI.

This study uses heart MRI scans to find markers that predict outcomes in people with ischemic heart disease, including those who have had a heart attack. It may help doctors better understand your condition and guide future care.
This study uses advanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans to better understand and diagnose heart disease. If you have suspected or confirmed heart problems, this trial may help doctors get clearer pictures of your heart muscle and tissue to figure out what's causing your symptoms.
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.
This study tests a new way to measure blood flow in the heart using an MRI scan. It may help doctors better diagnose chest pain and decide on treatment.
This study tests whether a new MRI technique (called ACCELERATE-CMR) can better detect blockages in the heart's arteries compared to the standard stress MRI. It aims to improve diagnosis of coronary artery disease in people with chest pain or heart failure.
This study tests a special heart scan that measures blood flow to the heart muscle. It may help doctors decide if your heart blockages need treatment or if medication is enough.
