AI heart model may help doctors place stents faster
NCT ID NCT07479433
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This registry study is testing a new AI tool called Heartflow PCI Navigator that creates a 3D model of a patient's heart arteries. Doctors use it to plan where to place stents to open blocked arteries. The study will enroll 5,000 people with coronary artery disease who are scheduled for a stent procedure. Researchers want to see if the tool changes the doctor's plan and improves the procedure.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Heartflow PCI Navigator (AI-driven diagnostic software)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this tool could help doctors plan stent procedures more quickly and accurately, potentially reducing procedure time and contrast use.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational registry, not a randomized trial, so it cannot prove the tool improves patient outcomes. The results may not apply to all patients or settings.
