Heart valve study using advanced MRI
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study uses a special type of MRI, called 4D flow MRI, to better understand how severe aortic stenosis (a narrowed heart valve) affects heart function. It may help doctors learn more about different types of this condition and improve future treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years of age or older.
- You have been diagnosed with severe aortic stenosis (a narrowed heart valve) and your doctor has recommended a valve replacement procedure called TAVR.
- You are willing to have a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan of your heart.
- You do not have any metal implants or devices in your body that would make an MRI unsafe (such as certain pacemakers or clips).
- You are not claustrophobic (afraid of enclosed spaces) or can manage an MRI scan.

This study uses MRI (a type of scan) in people who are scheduled for a catheter-based aortic valve replacement through the groin. It aims to see how well MRI can work for these patients and potentially improve care planning around the procedure.
This trial studies whether a new through-the-blood-vessel heart valve (TAVR) is safe and works well for people with severe aortic stenosis who are too risky for traditional surgery. If you qualify, you would be closely followed to check your symptoms and valve function over time.
This trial compares different methods to evaluate coronary artery disease in patients planning to have a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for severe aortic stenosis. The goal is to find out if a less invasive approach is as safe and effective as the standard one.
This study collects extra imaging data from 40 people who are already scheduled for a routine TAVI procedure to replace a narrowed aortic heart valve. The goal is to better understand the valve's structure and function using scans.
This trial studies heart imaging tests (from multiple types of scans) for people who have a narrowed aortic valve and are being checked for a valve replacement through the catheter (often called TAVI). It may help doctors better plan the procedure and understand heart function before treatment.
This study follows people with aortic stenosis who are getting a TAVI valve replacement. It uses imaging tests (MRI and CT) to learn more about the condition and improve future care.
