Summary

Investigators at the Biomedical Imaging Research Institute (BIRI) at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center have developed a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) method for imaging coronary arteries using slow-infusion, contrast-enhanced data acquisition. This method allows faster data acquisition and better spatial resolution.

Specific aims of this study are to:

1. compare coronary artery imaging with and without contrast media on both healthy subjects and patients;
2. assess the accuracy of coronary MRI in detecting coronary artery disease as compared to conventional x-ray angiography

Researchers hypothesize that contrast-enhanced MRI will improve the delineation of coronary arteries over non-contrast-enhanced MRI and that optimized, contrast-enhanced coronary MRI technique will accurately detect coronary artery disease (CAD) as compared to conventional x-ray angiography.

OTHER

Image Quality

The following procedures may be conducted as part of this study: * Coronary MRI scan with no contrast * Coronary MRI scan enhanced with a gadolinium-based contrast agent (Optimark, MultiHance, Ablavar) administered intravenously at a total dose of up to 0.2 mmol/kg * MRI scan with an oral beta blocker (metoprolol) * Cardiac Stress Test MRI scan with a pharmacologic stress drug; either adenosine (dosage depends on the subject's weight and is set at 140mcg/kg/min) or regadenoson (0.4mg/5ml bolus) Determination of study drugs will be made depending upon study focus, subjects' health conditions, blood pressure, heart rate and concomitant medications. Both groups are eligible for all combinations of interventions.

OTHER

Diagnostic Accuracy

Both groups are eligible for all combinations of interventions. This arm will also include collection of conventional x-ray angiography.
