First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study uses MRI scans to look at plaque buildup in leg arteries of people with peripheral arterial disease. Researchers want to see which plaques are hard to cross with a guidewire and which devices cause the least damage to the vessel wall. The study includes patients undergoing artery procedures and those having leg amputations. It aims to improve how doctors plan and perform these treatments.
