NCT ID NCT03192891

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

Summary

This study looked at how well a special heart MRI (called stress CMR) finds blocked arteries in real hospitals, not just research centers. Researchers tracked 2,349 people aged 35-85 who had symptoms of heart disease. They recorded heart attacks, deaths, and hospital visits to see if the MRI results could predict future problems. The goal was to gather evidence to help doctors decide when to use this test.
