Diastolic Function Assessment With Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging

NCT05438030 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 37

Last updated 2023-03-02

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is excellent at assessing the contractility of the heart muscle. However, relatively little is known about CMR's ability to assess the relaxation (diastolic function) of the heart between heart beats, where echocardiography remains the gold standard. This is important because in 30% of heart failure patients the overwhelming problem is diastolic dysfunction, and so they often need both tests.

The investigators wish to investigate how to best make measurements using CMR to identify those with impaired diastolic function, in the context of the current gold standard test (echocardiography).

Conditions

  • Diastolic Dysfunction

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Cardiac MRI scan

Undertaken at the radiology department at Hammersmith Hospital. The scan will be performed by the MRI radiographers, under the supervision of a consultant radiologist or cardiologist.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Echocardiogram scan

Undertaken at the Peart Rose research unit, by a British Society of Echocardiography accredited sonographer.
