Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Phase III diagnostic trial to demonstrate that functional lung MRI can replace VQ-SPECT in a diagnostic strategy for patients with suspected CTEPH where positive findings are verified with catheter pulmonary angiography (CPA), or computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA)

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

CHANGE-MRI is a prospective, multicentre, comparative phase III diagnostic study. The study aims to show via an in-place validation that MRI can replace VQ-SPECT as a screening test for chronic pulmonary embolism in the diagnostic algorithm for CTEPH. The diagnostic gold standard is catheter pulmonary angiography (CPA) or computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) with correction from the clinical outcome after 6-12 months.
