Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Accumulation of triglycerides in heart tissue has been associated with changes in left ventricular function which can lead to heart failure. Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy is currently the only non-invasive in vivo method to measure myocardial triglycerides content. The primary goal of this study was to determine if Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy could effectively measure myocardial triglyceride content in myocardial heart tissue. Thus, quantitative and reliable techniques to monitor in vivo triglyceride accumulation in the heart are important for disease diagnosis and management. Currently, no such imaging method exists.
