First seen Feb 16, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 14 times

Summary

This study aims to see if a new type of MRI using a contrast agent called ferumoxytol can better detect calcium buildup in heart arteries compared to standard CT scans. Researchers will enroll 100 adults with known coronary calcification and compare the MRI results to the gold-standard coronary angiography. The goal is to improve diagnosis without using radiation.
