No X-Rays, no dye: new heart valve procedure could protect kidneys
NCT ID NCT07458672
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new way to replace a leaky heart valve (aortic regurgitation) without using X-rays or contrast dye, which can harm the kidneys. Instead, doctors will use only ultrasound (echocardiography) to guide the procedure. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and works well for 30 patients who need a new valve but cannot have standard imaging.
