Heart MRI study for early heart failure with preserved pump function
Part of Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial uses advanced MRI scans to study early signs of heart failure in people whose heart pumps normally but who have risk factors like diabetes, high blood pressure, or obesity. It aims to improve detection and understanding of this condition.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your heart's pumping ability (ejection fraction) is 50% or higher.
- You have at least one heart risk factor such as diabetes, high blood pressure, or obesity.
- You do not have other heart muscle diseases like hypertrophic or dilated cardiomyopathy.
- You have not had a heart attack or unstable angina in the last 30 days.
- You do not have severe heart valve problems, irregular heartbeat, or a heart tumor.
- You do not have congenital heart disease or conditions like cardiac amyloidosis.

This research uses cardiac MRI scans and patient data to better predict outcomes in people with dilated cardiomyopathy—a condition where the heart's main pumping chamber becomes enlarged and weakened. Participating could help doctors improve how they care for similar patients in the future.
This early-phase study uses a special MRI scan to look at the heart in people with heart failure (and related heart changes). It aims to see whether these MRI results can better characterize heart disease and help doctors understand what’s going on.
This study looks for people who may be developing heart failure early, using heart imaging and related checks. If you fit the risk pattern, the results may help find heart failure sooner in similar people.
This trial uses a special heart MRI to create pressure-volume loops in people with heart failure who have a normal pumping strength (ejection fraction of 50% or higher). It aims to better understand heart function and could help guide future treatments. You may qualify if you have heart failure symptoms and specific heart structure or function changes.
This study uses a special MRI scan with a natural contrast agent (manganese) to look at how well the heart muscle works in people with heart failure who still have normal pumping strength. The goal is to learn more about why this type of heart failure happens.
This study uses an advanced heart scan (CMR heart MRI) to better recognize a type of heart failure where the pumping strength is preserved. If you fit the criteria, the MRI and related testing may help your doctors and researchers understand your condition more accurately.
