NCT ID NCT02326324
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is following 10,000 adults who are having a heart MRI for medical reasons. Researchers want to see if the MRI results can help predict who will have heart problems in the future, like heart attacks or heart failure. The goal is to better understand how MRI scans can guide treatment and improve outcomes for people with heart disease.
