Brief Summary:
Heart attacks remain a common cause of death throughout the world. The most common initiating event is the formation of a blood clot within the coronary arteries occluding blood supply to the heart. However, we know that thrombus often occurs within the coronary arteries without causing any symptoms, and may be found in patients with stable angina. We wish to investigate whether blood clots within the coronary arteries can be detected in patients who have had a heart attack and in patients with stable angina using combined positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance (PET-MR) imaging. If possible, this may provide a safe and noninvasive means of identifying patients at higher risk of heart attacks.
The study will be conducted in Edinburgh Heart Centre and a total of 40 participants will be recruited from the cardiology wards, outpatient clinics and day case unit. Participants will be asked to undergo a single PET-MRI scan in addition to invasive angiography as part of standard care (non-research procedure). During the invasive angiogram procedure, an additional imaging test may be performed called Optical Coherence Tomography to provide images from within the heart blood vessels.
