Skin scans may reveal hidden heart risks in older adults
NCT ID NCT07359768
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether simple, non-invasive skin tests can detect early signs of heart disease by measuring how well small blood vessels work. Researchers will study 900 people aged 60-75, comparing skin blood flow measurements with detailed heart scans. The goal is to find better ways to identify heart disease risk before symptoms appear.
