New ultrasound technique could reveal hidden heart damage

NCT ID NCT06648577

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether a new 3D ultrasound method can measure heart muscle stiffness in people with a leaky mitral valve (mitral regurgitation). The goal is to see if these measurements match findings from MRI scans that show scarring in the heart. About 40 adults with different levels of valve leakage will take part. The research aims to improve how doctors detect early heart damage, but does not test any treatment.
