NCT ID NCT06587165
First seen Jun 18, 2026 · Last updated Jun 18, 2026
Summary
This study aims to measure how well infants' hearts can make new muscle cells, especially in those with a heart condition called Tetralogy of Fallot. Researchers will use a special imaging technique on heart tissue that is normally removed and thrown away during surgery. The goal is to learn more about heart regeneration, not to provide a new treatment. About 30 infants under 1 year old will participate.
