First-Ever scan aims to spot hidden heart damage
NCT ID NCT07481136
Summary
This study is testing a new type of PET scan that uses a special tracer to detect active inflammation and immune cell damage in the heart muscle of patients with acute myocarditis. The goal is to see if this scan can provide a clearer, more certain diagnosis than current tests. Researchers will enroll about 10 patients to see if the scan works and how it compares to other measures of inflammation.
