NCT ID NCT06702917

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests a new CT scan mode called GSI Cardiac on GE's Revolution Apex system. It enrolls 50 adults: some scheduled for a standard heart CT, others with a history of heart attack or scheduled for cardiac catheterization. Participants receive an extra research scan right after their standard one, lasting about 1 minute. The goal is to see if the new mode produces usable images, not to treat any condition.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to

If successful, this could help develop better CT imaging techniques for heart disease, potentially improving diagnosis of conditions like heart attacks.

What could go wrong

This is an early data collection study with only 50 participants. It does not test a treatment or cure, and the new scan mode may not prove better than standard methods.
