Hyperemic mYocardial Perfusion by adEnosine at diffeRent Doses

Important: This information is not medical advice. Talk to your doctor about whether a clinical trial is right for you.

About This Trial

Adenosine is a commonly used pharmaceutical stressor at cardiac magnetic resonance examinations to assess suspected chronic coronary syndrome (CCS). However, several studies have reported that the current use of adenosine does not induce adequate hyperemic response in a substantial number of patients, leading to false diagnostics. The aim of this trial is to investigate the hyperemic effect of the standard dose of adenosine (140 microgram/kg/min) to the high dose of adenosine (210 microgram/kg/min) to improve the diagnostic methods using adenosine as a stressor and ultimately improve treatment decisions and patient prognosis in CCS.
