Summary

This study looks at whether a special MRI can help monitor heart transplant patients without the need for frequent, invasive biopsies. Researchers will follow 247 adults who have had a heart transplant to see if MRI scans can detect early signs of rejection or other complications. The goal is to make monitoring safer and more comfortable for patients.
