NCT ID NCT07536607

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

Summary

This study will test a new type of CT scan (photon counting CT) to see if it can give doctors a clearer picture of the fatty deposits (plaques) inside heart arteries. The goal is to find out if these detailed images can help predict who might have a heart attack or other serious heart problems in the future. The study will include 180 adults with known or suspected coronary artery disease and will follow them over time to track their health outcomes.
