First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether MRI can accurately measure fluid buildup in the lungs of people hospitalized for acute heart failure. Researchers will track 300 patients from admission to discharge to see how lung water changes with treatment and whether these measurements can predict who is at higher risk of returning to the hospital or dying. The goal is to improve monitoring and risk assessment for heart failure patients.
