Heart MRI to detect hidden rupture after heart attack
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial uses a special heart MRI to find and guide treatment for a hidden tear in the heart wall that can happen after a heart attack. It is for people who have had a STEMI and then developed early inflammation of the heart lining.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have had a STEMI (a kind of major heart attack that blocks blood flow to a large part of the heart).
- You must have been diagnosed with early pericarditis (inflammation of the sac around the heart) that started soon after the heart attack.

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 trial compares using a cardiac MRI before the standard catheterization (angiogram) in people with a suspected heart attack that doesn't show the typical ECG changes. It aims to see if the MRI can help guide decisions and avoid unnecessary procedures.
This study looks at the lymphatic system and heart tissue after a heart attack (STEMI) in people who had prompt catheter treatment. It uses heart MRI to understand healing and may help researchers improve care after a heart attack.
This study follows people 18 and older who have had a specific type of heart attack (STEMI). It aims to better understand them using a heart MRI scan, which may help improve how these patients are evaluated and cared for.
