Summary
This study looks at whether a special MRI scan can detect early scarring in the heart muscle of people with leaky heart valves. The goal is to find a way to predict when the heart might start to fail, so doctors can decide on surgery sooner. About 316 adults with moderate to severe valve disease will be followed to see how scarring relates to heart function over time.
