First seen Jan 05, 2026 · Last updated May 11, 2026 · Updated 17 times

Summary

This study looks at how heart failure may cause brain volume loss. Researchers will use MRI scans to measure brain structures in 100 adults with heart failure and compare them to people with normal heart function. The goal is to understand the link between heart health and brain changes, which could help explain higher dementia risks in heart failure patients.
