Summary

The purpose of this research study is to further establish the diagnostic use of magnetocardiography (MCG) in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). The use of MCG has not been extensively studied in these patients. This pilot study will serve to further characterize abnormalities found on MCG in comparison to patients without hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Additionally, the study will be used to understand whether MCG has any additional diagnostic utility in offering clinicians insight on the patient's disease state, thereby aiding in the development of treatment plans.

This research study is designed to test the effectiveness of the investigational use of magnetocardiography in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. The device itself has been approved by the U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
