Magnetocardiography as a Diagnostic Screening Tool for Myocarditis and Other Types of Cardiomyopathy
Diagnostic Accuracy of Magnetocardiography in Inflammatory Cardiomyopathies: A Comparison With Noninvasive Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) and Invasive Endomyocardial Biopsy
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 19 Dec 2024
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Accurate and rapid screening is an unmet medical need to address the increasing demand for advanced diagnostic workup in patients with suspected cardiomyopathy. Due to an overwhelmed health care system, advanced imaging is not always immediately available leading to underdiagnosis and progression of cardiomyopathies to advanced stages and sudden death. The investigator's recently demonstrated in a retrospective study that magnetocardiography (MCG) could be a suitable tool to detect inflammatory and other types of cardiomyopathies in a highly effective manner and without any safety issues. In this study, the investigator's test diagnostic accuracy of MCG prospectively.
