Heart transplant patients may soon skip invasive scans thanks to new PET study
NCT ID NCT06089486
First seen May 11, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 5 times
Summary
This study compares a noninvasive PET scan to the standard invasive coronary angiography for monitoring heart transplant patients for a condition called cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV), which narrows heart arteries. Researchers will enroll 576 adults who are 2-10 years post-transplant to see if PET is as effective at detecting problems. The goal is to find a safer, less invasive way to keep hearts healthy after transplant.
