A study using a new scan to look at heart disease
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial is testing a new imaging method (68Ga-FAPI PET/CMR) to better see and understand heart problems. It might help doctors diagnose or monitor conditions like heart failure or inflammation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be diagnosed with a heart disease by a heart doctor.
- You need to be over 18 years old.
- Your heart condition should be stable, meaning no recent changes in symptoms or treatment.
- You must be able to give consent and follow study procedures.
- You cannot have cancer or certain metal implants like pacemakers.

This research study uses advanced imaging scans (PET and MRI) to see how well blood vessels work and how organs use energy in your body. The study includes people with heart disease and healthy volunteers, and may help doctors better understand heart and metabolic health.
This study uses a special PET scan to look for scarring (fibrosis) in the heart muscle of people with heart failure. It may help doctors better understand why some hearts get stiff or weak.
This study uses advanced imaging (PET/MRI) to look at how kidney disease affects the heart and blood vessels. It may help doctors better understand and treat chronic kidney disease.
This trial tests if a special PET scan can help doctors better diagnose and follow infections in people with implanted heart devices like valves, pacemakers, or grafts.
This trial uses a special PET scan tracer to see if it can help find and monitor diseases linked to a protein called FAP. It is for both cancer patients needing a biopsy and healthy volunteers.
This study uses a special PET scan (68Ga-FAPI) to look at inflammation in the heart. It may help researchers understand heart failure and cardiac sarcoidosis better.
