NCT ID NCT06400004
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests two methods of giving a contrast agent called Lumason during heart ultrasound. It compares giving the drug as a slow drip versus a single injection to see which provides clearer images of the heart's left ventricle. The study involves 106 adults whose initial ultrasound images were not clear enough. The goal is to improve image quality for better diagnosis.
