Magnetic heart scan could spot hidden chest pain causes
NCT ID NCT07657546
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a magnetocardiography (MCG) device can detect reduced blood flow to the heart muscle in people with acute chest pain but no major artery blockages. About 3,786 participants will undergo MCG scanning, and results will be compared to a standard ultrasound test. If accurate, MCG could become a faster, non-invasive tool for diagnosing non-obstructive myocardial ischemia.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Magnetocardiography device
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could provide a non-invasive, quick way to diagnose heart muscle oxygen shortage in patients whose arteries appear normal on standard tests.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early diagnostic study, not a treatment trial. The device's accuracy may not be high enough to replace current methods, and results may not apply to all chest pain patients.
