Can a new eye inside arteries predict heart attacks in diabetics?
NCT ID NCT06649305
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will use a special camera (NIRS-OCT) to look inside the heart arteries of 1,516 people with diabetes. The goal is to find fatty plaques that might rupture and cause heart attacks. Researchers hope to create a new way to identify these dangerous plaques early, so doctors can take steps to prevent future heart problems.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a new imaging method to identify dangerous plaques early, potentially reducing heart attacks and cardiac deaths in diabetic patients.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It may not directly improve outcomes, and the new index needs validation before clinical use.
