Study Summary

This trial is testing if special MRI settings make it safe to use a guidewire during MRI fluoroscopy. Researchers will compare the safety of the special MRI settings with the safety of standard MRI settings.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who need a heart catheterization, which is a procedure to check heart function. Participants must not be pregnant or nursing, have severe heart valve issues, unstable heart conditions like ongoing attacks or failure, and can't have certain metal implants or allergies to MRI contrast agents.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if using special guidewires during an MRI-guided heart catheterization is safe with low energy settings that prevent the wires from heating up. This could make the procedure quicker and reduce time in the MRI machine.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include discomfort from lying still inside the MRI scanner for up to two hours, risks associated with sedation and catheter insertion such as bleeding or infection at the site of entry, and possible allergic reactions to materials used.

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
The principal objective of this protocol is to test the safety and feasibility of MRI fluoroscopy catheter navigation using 0.035 guidewires during left and right heart catheterization guided by low-SAR MRI pulse sequences
Secondary outcome measures
Additional objectives are to test and enhanced MRI as an adjunct to routine hemodynamic cardiac catheterization
