Multicenter Myocardial Viability Trial

Completed
Conditions
Coronary Artery Disease
Registration Number
NCT00661232
Lead Sponsor
CHI St. Luke's Health, Texas
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis of whether contrast enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging can be used to predict improvement of the wall motion in regions of the heart with abnormal movement following bypass surgery or percutaneous angioplasty in various institutions across three continents.
