NCT ID NCT06593418

First seen Apr 26, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 5 times

Summary

This study tests a radiation treatment for people with a dangerous heart rhythm called ventricular tachycardia that hasn't been controlled by medication or standard procedures. About 24 adults with an implanted defibrillator will receive a single, targeted dose of radiation to the heart. The goal is to find the lowest effective dose that reduces episodes of this abnormal rhythm and to see if using special MRI scans helps guide the treatment more precisely.
