AI reads heart scans to guide treatment in 20,000 patients
NCT ID NCT06376851
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This registry is collecting data from 20,000 people with coronary artery disease to see if an AI tool that analyzes CT scans of the heart can help doctors make better treatment decisions. The AI measures the amount and type of plaque in the arteries. Researchers will compare how medical management changes after doctors get the AI results versus standard CT scans alone. This is an observational study, so no new treatment is being tested.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
AI-enabled quantitative coronary plaque analysis (AI-QCPA)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that AI analysis of CT scans helps doctors choose better treatments for heart disease patients.
What could go wrong
This is an observational registry, not a treatment trial, so it won't prove that AI analysis directly improves health outcomes. Results may not apply to all patients.
