Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Viability: Comparison of Myocardial Viability by Positron Emission Tomography and MRI

Completed

• Conditions: Coronary Artery Disease

• Registration Number: NCT00166179
• Lead Sponsor: Emory University

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare cardiac MRI with positron emission tomography (PET) with fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) to determine if cardiac MRI images are as good as, or better, than PET with FDG.
