Evaluation of Cardiac Function With Cardio-respiratory Synchronized MRI

Not Applicable
Suspended
Conditions
Heart Disease
Interventions
Procedure: cardiovascular MRI (CMR)
Procedure: Conventional Cardiologic Evaluation
Registration Number
NCT02728284
Lead Sponsor
NYU Langone Health
Brief Summary

The purpose of this investigation is to evaluate newer methods of performing cardiovascular MRI (CMR) that will provide new kinds of information related to the interplay between the cardiac and the respiratory cycles, such as the interaction between the left ventricle and the right ventricle during respiration . The primary statistical objective is to provide preliminary indications of the relative utility of the investigational imaging software in terms of image quality and suitability for routine clinical use. Image quality will be expressed in terms of signal-to-noise ratios (SNR), contrast-to-noise ratios (CNR) and subjective Likert-type qualitative assessments independently provided by each of multiple blinded readers for each image. Suitability for routine use will be assessed in terms of imaging time and a binary indicator of whether, in the opinion of the investigator, adverse procedural complications (not expected) were encountered during a given imaging session.
