NCT ID NCT07169201
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will test a new, high-speed CT scanner to see if it can measure heart artery plaque stiffness and blood flow without invasive procedures. Researchers will enroll 500 adults with known or suspected coronary artery disease. The goal is to see if this new imaging method can identify dangerous plaques and predict heart problems better than current tests.
