About this study

The purpose of this study is to validate a full-automated post-processing software for quantitative perfusion of the myocardium with magnetic resonance imaging.

Read the detailed description

Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is a wide available technique for the diagnosis of myocardial ischemia. However, myocardial first-pass perfusion evaluation has been limited due to the moderate accuracy of the currently available qualitative and semiquantitative methods used to assess myocardial perfusion, and due to the lack of efficient absolute quantitative methods. Some CMR techniques and post-processing mathematical models have been developed for quantitative measurement of myocardial blood flow reserve with perfusion CMR under pharmacological stress. Measurement of these parameters with CMR have been shown to increase the accuracy of CMR in diagnosing myocardial ischemia, but most of these methods present technical challenges and have unreasonably time consuming post-processing. The aim of this study is to validate a full automated post-processing software for first pass perfusion CMR images that results in automated generated quantitative perfusion color maps.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Accuracy of global myocardial first pass perfusion in mL/min/g measured in automatic post-processed color maps compared with myocardial blood volume measured in the coronary sinus (mL/min) divided by the total left ventricle mass (g)

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 9 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Myocardial Ischemia, run by Karolinska Institutet at 1 site in Sweden.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jun 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Sweden. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Accuracy of global myocardial first pass perfusion in mL/min/g measured in automatic post-processed color maps compared with myocardial blood volume measured in the coronary sinus (mL/min) divided by the total left ventricle mass (g) (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 9 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02723747, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Jun 2022.
