Study of heart blood flow using advanced imaging
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a special imaging scan to measure how well blood flows through heart muscle in patients with chest pain and suspected heart disease. The results may help doctors better diagnose heart conditions without invasive procedures.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have chest pain that comes and goes and your doctor thinks you might have heart disease
- Your doctor has recommended a non-invasive test (like a stress test or imaging scan) to check for heart problems
- You are able and willing to sign consent to participate
- You do not have a recent heart attack or serious heart rhythm problems
- You can safely have an MRI scan (no metal implants, no severe kidney problems, no severe claustrophobia)

This study tests a new, noninvasive way to detect reduced blood flow to the heart (myocardial ischemia) using a magnetic heart scan called MCG. If you have chest pain or similar symptoms but your narrowed arteries are not severely blocked, this trial may help diagnose your condition more accurately.
This study compares two heart-imaging methods: a newer magnetic scan (MCG) and a standard nuclear scan (ECT) for people with symptoms of reduced blood flow to the heart. If you are already scheduled for an ECT scan, taking part may help doctors learn if the MCG is a good alternative—with no radiation and a shorter test.
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.
This study uses a special heart MRI to look at blood-flow patterns and how they relate to heart muscle injury. It may help researchers better understand different types of heart damage by comparing people with and without injury.
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 checks whether a magnet-based heart scan (magnetocardiography) can more accurately find “true ischemia,” which means reduced blood flow to the heart, in people who come to the emergency room with chest pain. It aims to help doctors tell which chest pain is truly from heart blood-flow problems.
