Treatments
Other: Healthy Volunteers
Approximately 110 healthy male/female adult normals or controls will receive non-contrast or contrast-enhanced Cardiac MRI. Imaging may include administration of contrast and a beta blocker, based upon the focus of the study at the time of the scan, as well as the safety profile of the participant.
Other: Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) Patients
40 male/female adult outpatients who are suspected of having or have been diagnosed with coronary artery disease (CAD) will receive non-contrast or contrast-enhanced Cardiac MRI. Imaging may include administration of contrast and a beta blocker, based upon the focus of the study at the time of the scan, as well as the safety profile of the participant.
