5,000 patients to help unlock secrets of inflammatory heart disease
NCT ID NCT07077304
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aims to learn how well heart scans (MRI, ultrasound, PET) can detect and predict outcomes in people with suspected or known inflammatory heart diseases. Researchers will follow 5,000 adults for one year to see how often heart involvement is confirmed and how it affects health. No new treatments are being tested; the goal is to improve diagnosis and understanding.
