About this study

In plain language

This study looks at inflammation in people with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), where the heart still pumps a normal share of blood with each beat. People have a heart MRI scan using gadolinium dye, then get iron through a vein, and have another heart MRI scan 72 hours later.

Subjects undergo a gadolinium-based CMR followed by an iron infusion and then a repeat CMR in 72 hours

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.

Eligibility

Who can join
