Heart CT Follow-Up could cut heart attacks in Non-Obstructive disease
NCT ID NCT06843005
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether doing a follow-up CT scan of the heart arteries in people with non-obstructive coronary artery disease can help doctors adjust treatment to better control cholesterol and prevent heart attacks, strokes, or death. About 3,100 participants will be randomly assigned to either standard care or care guided by the CT scan results. The goal is to see if this imaging-based strategy improves outcomes over three years.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography (CCTA) scan
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could help doctors personalize heart disease treatment based on plaque changes seen on CT scans, potentially reducing heart attacks and strokes.
What could go wrong
This is a large but early-stage study testing a management strategy, not a new drug. The benefit may be small, and the extra scans could lead to unnecessary procedures or anxiety.
