Heart blood flow scan for congenital heart disease
Part of Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a new MRI technique to measure blood flow in the heart without invasive procedures. It may help doctors better understand and manage congenital heart conditions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a known or suspected heart condition like pulmonary hypertension, right heart outflow problems, or a Fontan repair.
- You are scheduled for a right heart catheterization (a procedure to check heart pressures) as part of your care.
- You are able to give informed consent, or a legal guardian can consent for you (if you are a minor).
- You do not have any reason that would make a heart MRI or right heart catheterization unsafe for you.

This study uses MRI scans and computer simulations to learn more about how the heart and blood flow work in people with certain heart or lung conditions. It may help researchers better understand heart problems and improve future care.
This study uses heart imaging tests to better understand pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and predict outcomes. It may help doctors tailor treatment for people with PAH.
This study observes people who are already scheduled for a right heart catheterization, a procedure that checks the pressure in your heart. It helps doctors learn more about heart conditions without adding any extra treatments or procedures.
This study uses MRI (a scanning test) to develop new ways to measure heart function in both healthy volunteers and people with suspected or known heart disease. It may help researchers create better heart tests that could improve future diagnosis and monitoring.
This study uses an MRI scan that does not use contrast dye to better diagnose and sort out pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs). It may help doctors classify your condition more accurately, especially around the time you’re scheduled for a right-heart catheterization.
This trial studies how the right side of the heart works in people with heart failure. It uses special monitoring to understand muscle function and may help doctors find better ways to treat right heart failure.
