NON-ISCHEMIC CARDIOMYOPATHY

This study tests a small device called C-MIC that is implanted without open-heart surgery to help people with heart failure. It includes 22 adults with weak heart pumping (ejection fraction between 25% and 50%) despite standard medications. The device delivers microcurrents to th…

This study is testing whether an implantable defibrillator (ICD) helps people with a certain type of heart failure (non-ischemic cardiomyopathy) live longer. About 2,500 participants will be randomly assigned to receive an ICD or not, and their survival will be tracked for up to …

This study tests if a single low-dose radiation treatment to the whole heart can improve heart function in people with advanced heart failure. About 40 adults with severe heart failure who are not eligible for a heart transplant will receive this treatment. The goal is to see if …

This study is looking at whether advanced heart imaging, especially cardiac MRI, can help identify the cause of cardiomyopathy and predict risks like death or heart failure in a diverse group of patients. The research focuses on adults in the Bronx, including many from Hispanic a…

This study will test new MRI methods to find early signs of heart disease in 1000 adults. Researchers want to see if these scans can detect tiny changes in heart muscle before standard tests do. Participants will have MRI scans and blood work, but no treatment is given. The goal …

This study is testing a comprehensive MRI scan to see if it can better diagnose different heart conditions. Researchers will scan 2,000 adults with suspected or confirmed heart disease. The goal is to create a standard imaging method that improves early detection and risk predict…

This study will use a new type of cardiac MRI to look at the heart's microscopic structure in 1,000 people—both healthy volunteers and those with various heart conditions. The goal is to see if this advanced imaging can detect early signs of heart damage better than standard test…

This study looks at a recently identified heart condition called non-dilated left ventricular cardiomyopathy (NDLVC), where the heart muscle is abnormal but not enlarged. Researchers will review medical records and heart MRI scans from 1,000 patients to find which scan features b…

This study is for adults with a weak heart muscle and a leaky mitral valve (functional mitral regurgitation). Researchers will use advanced MRI scans to better predict which treatments—medication or a minimally invasive valve repair—will work best for each person. The goal is to …
