Study summary

Myocardial perfusion is a major parameter characterizing the status of capillary circulation of the myocardium. Its quantification is possible using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) during the 1st pass of a contrast agent through the capillary system. This technique is radiation-free, but it is difficult to repeat measurements during a single exam. Also, a number of patients suffering from cardiac disease cannot receive contrast agent injections. The investigators have developed a totally non-invasive approach for quantifying myocardial perfusion. It is based on the magnetic labeling of arterial spins. Flowing into the capillaries (Arterial spin labeling, ASL).

Goal : The major goal of this research protocol is to validate a totally non-invasive method of myocardial blood flow quantification using MRI without contrast agent injection

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Nov 14, 2022, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
