Summary

This trial will test if a new MRI technique can help diagnose and treat patients with heart conditions.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-90 with suspected or diagnosed heart conditions like ischemic heart disease, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, infiltrative cardiomyopathy, or myocarditis. They must be referred for a CMR scan and can't participate if they have metal implants, acute psychiatric disorders, substance abuse issues, allergies to MRI contrast agents, are in an unstable condition or won't follow the study rules.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing advanced Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (CMR) techniques to better diagnose and monitor various heart diseases. It aims to see how well these new fast quantitative imaging methods work compared to traditional ones.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves imaging techniques rather than drugs, side effects may include discomfort during the procedure or reactions to contrast agents used in some MRIs such as mild allergic reactions.
