Brief Summary:
This study will be an observational registry to investigate the ability of magnetocardiography (MCG) in determining the presence of myocardial ischemia with the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease, by using an invasive reference standard coronary flow reserve (CFR) measured using thermodilution for diagnosis. Up to 200 participants in a 1:1 ratio of CMD positive to CMD negative will be enrolled. The device is a magnetocardiography (MCG) scanner named CardioFlux, which is paired with cloud processing software. A CardioFlux scan appointment shall last approximately 15 minutes in duration and include a patient questionnaire following the scan.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment
Ischemic Heart Disease Coronary Microvascular Disease Angina Device: CardioFlux Magnetocardiography

Detailed Description:

This observational registry study focuses on investigating the efficacy of magnetocardiography (MCG) in detecting myocardial ischemia in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease (CMD). The reference standard for diagnosis will be invasive coronary flow reserve (CFR) measured using thermodilution. The study aims to enroll up to 200 participants in a 1:1 ratio of CMD positive to CMD negative cases.

The study utilizes a magnetocardiography (MCG) scanner known as CardioFlux, complemented by cloud processing software. The scanning procedure is designed to last approximately 15 minutes per participant, encompassing 5 minutes for patient preparation, 5 minutes for the CardioFlux scan, and an additional 5 minutes for a post-scan patient survey.

The primary objective is to assess the ability of MCG, through CardioFlux, to accurately determine the presence of myocardial ischemia in comparison to the reference standard CFR. The study will provide valuable insights into the diagnostic potential of MCG and its role in CMD detection, contributing to advancements in non-invasive cardiovascular diagnostics.

The primary study outcome measures shall be the detection of myocardial ischemia with no obstructive coronary artery disease (INOCA) using MCG-CF compared to Cardiac Thermodilution derived CFR. The secondary study outcome measures shall be the MCG Questionnaire, Demographic data (age, sex, height, weight, etc.), Relevant patient medical history, EKG results (if available), and Invasive CFR/angiogram results.

Group/Cohort Intervention/treatment
CMD negative
Participants in this group exhibit no signs of Coronary Microvascular Disease (CMD), as evidenced by a CFR measurement equal to or greater than 2.5. This group serves as the comparative reference, representing individuals without CMD-related myocardial ischemia.
Device: CardioFlux Magnetocardiography
The device is a magnetocardiography (MCG) scanner named CardioFlux, which is paired with a cloud processing software. CardioFlux devices are owned by Genetesis and are currently cleared for the acquisition, display, and analysis of magnetic fields generated by cardiac electrical activity (K182571, FDA clearance letter available for download online)

CMD positive
This group comprises participants demonstrating signs of Coronary Microvascular Disease (CMD), defined by a coronary flow reserve (CFR) measurement of less than 2.5. Participants in this category are experiencing myocardial ischemia without significant blockages in their coronary arteries.
Device: CardioFlux Magnetocardiography
The device is a magnetocardiography (MCG) scanner named CardioFlux, which is paired with a cloud processing software. CardioFlux devices are owned by Genetesis and are currently cleared for the acquisition, display, and analysis of magnetic fields generated by cardiac electrical activity (K182571, FDA clearance letter available for download online)




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Detection of Myocardial Ischemia in the Absence of Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease (INOCA) [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
    The primary focus of the study is to assess the efficacy of magnetocardiography with CardioFlux (MCG-CF) in detecting myocardial ischemia in individuals with no obstructive coronary artery disease (INOCA). The comparison will be made against Cardiac Thermodilution-derived Coronary Flow Reserve (CFR)


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Patient-Reported Experiences with MCG [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
  2. Participant Demographic Characteristics [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
    weight (kg)

  3. Participant Demographic Characteristics [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
    age, sex, vital signs

  4. Electrocardiogram (EKG) [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
    If participants have undergone electrocardiogram (EKG) testing, the results will be considered to provide additional insights into their cardiac electrical activity.

  5. Invasive Coronary Flow Reserve (CFR) and Angiogram Outcomes [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
