Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The study population will be composed of patients with suspected cardiovascular disease who are scheduled for a clinical CMR scan as part of a routine clinical work-up. Patients will be stratified according to the clinical indication for CMR and their suspected or known clinical diagnosis.

Who may be able to join

  • Age: > 18y, Informed consent No known current or pre-existing significant medical conditions that would affect the cardiovascular or respiratory system
  • Age: >18 y, Informed consent, Clinically indicated CMR exam

Who cannot join

  • General MRI contraindications: MR- incompatible devices such as pacemakers, defibrillators, or implanted material or foreign bodies. Consumption of caffeinated drinks or foods (including cocoa and chocolate) during the 12 hours prior to the exam.Regular nicotine consumption during the last 6 months

About this study

This study aims to identify and assess new CMR techniques that can improve current CMR protocols.

Read the detailed description

The aim of this study is to develop a comprehensive 10-minute protocol based on function and myocardial tissue characterization without the need for contrast injection, which can be standardized for 70% of cardiac patients.

To test this 10-minute CMR protocol for its ability to significantly improve diagnostic decision-making and to reduce cost.

To test its clinical feasibility, performance and cost-effectiveness in different populations including: Non-ischemic cardiomyopathies (-)OS-CMR and Ischemic Heart Disease and CAD (+)OS-CMR

What is being measured

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

  1. Primary diagnosis comparison between SMART CMR and standard CMR

    (All patients) Agreement of the suggested primary diagnosis derived from SMART CMR, compared with the diagnosis established from standard CMR protocols, using the final clinical diagnosis as established by the treating physician, as a standard of truth. If the latter is not available, the conclusions based on the results of the standard CMR protocol will be used as the standard of truth.

    Measured: 2019-2025

  2. Main finding comparison between SMART CMR and standard CMR in patients with suspected coronary artery disease

    (Patients with suspected coronary artery disease:) Agreement of the main finding regarding the presence of a coronary territory at risk for inducible myocardial ischemia myocardial derived from OS-CMR, compared with standard first-pass perfusion CMR, using the coronary angiography report as a standard of truth. If the latter is not available, the conclusions based on the results of the standard CMR first pass perfusion scan will be used as the standard of truth.

    Measured: 2019-2025

Secondary outcomes (15)
  1. SMART CMR scan completion percentage

    Proportion of SMART CMR scans that could be completed according to the protocol

    Measured: 2019-2025

  2. OS-CMR scan completion percentage

    Proportion of OS-CMR scans that could be completed according to the protocol

    Measured: 2019-2025

  3. Adverse event monitoring during SMART CMR sequences

    Number and proportion of reported adverse events effects during SMART CMR

    Measured: 2019-2025

  4. Adverse event monitoring during OS-CMR sequence

    Number and proportion of reported adverse events during OS-CMR

    Measured: 2019-2025

  5. SMART CMR sequence times vs standard protocol sequence times

    Observed scan time for SMART CMR compared with the standard CMR protocol

    Measured: 2019-2025

  6. OS-CMR sequence times vs standard protocol sequence times

    Observed scan time for for OS-CMR during breathing maneuvers compared with the standard CMR first-pass perfusion protocol

    Measured: 2019-2025

  7. Cost comparison of SMART CMR vs standard CMR protocol

    Total estimated cost of SMART CMR compared with the standard CMR protocol

    Measured: 2019-2025

  8. Cost comparison of OS-CMR vs standard CMR protocol

    Total cost of OS-CMR with breathing maneuvers (based on scan time) vs the standard CMR first-pass perfusion protocol (calculated from the scan time plus any other material such as contrast agents or pharmacological vasodilators)

    Measured: 2019-2025

  9. Septal myocardial T1 vs standard myocardial T1

    Septal myocardial T1 as estimated from SMART CMR, compared with results from standard myocardial mapping

    Measured: 2019-2025

  10. Septal myocardial T2 vs standard myocardial T2

    Septal myocardial T2 as estimated from SMART CMR, compared with results from standard myocardial mapping

    Measured: 2019-2025

  11. Quantitative parameter comparison between SMART CMR and CINE images

    Quantitative parameters relevant to the diagnosis (see Appendix: CanSCMR Recommendations for reporting CMR) measured in SMART CMR images, compared with results from standard CMR cine images

    Measured: 2019-2025

  12. Strain measurements vs standard cine image measurements

    Longitudinal and circumferential strain measurements measured in SMART CMR images, compared with results from standard CMR cine images

    Measured: 2019-2025

  13. SMART-CMR post-stenotic peak flow vs standard CMR flow images

    Post-stenotic peak flow velocity in patients with suspected valvular disease measured in SMART CMR images, compared with results from standard CMR flow images

    Measured: 2019-2025

  14. Intra- and inter-reader reproducibility

    Correlation coefficients will be obtained to evaluate the intra- and inter-reader reproducibility of all quantitative markers.

    Measured: 2019-2025

  15. Inter- and intra-scanner variability

    Inter- and intra- scanner variability as assessed by ICC and kappa

    Measured: 2019-2025
