Study Summary
This trial will use MRI to guide catheters during heart procedures instead of x-ray, which doesn't expose patients to radiation.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals needing heart catheterization, which isn't an emergency. It's not for pregnant or nursing women (unless they can discard breast milk for a day), people with unstable heart conditions, or those who have certain metal implants/devices that make MRI scans unsafe.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing a new way to do heart catheterizations using MRI instead of X-rays. This method aims to guide the catheters without exposing patients to radiation, potentially making the procedure safer.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial uses MRI technology instead of radiation, there are no radiation-related side effects. However, some may experience discomfort from lying still during the MRI or reactions related to standard risks of catheterization.
