Heart scan without needles: new test may predict heart attacks
NCT ID NCT06822894
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study is testing a new way to measure blood flow in the heart's arteries using ultrasound, without needing special wires or drugs. Researchers will follow about 500 people with coronary artery disease for one year to see if this measurement can predict serious heart events like heart attacks or the need for more procedures. If it works, it could give doctors a simpler tool to decide who needs more aggressive treatment.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide doctors with a simpler, safer way to assess heart disease severity and predict future heart problems without invasive pressure wires or drugs.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It only looks for patterns, so it cannot prove that using 3V-UFR improves outcomes. Results may not apply to all patients.
