About this trial
Cancer and cardiovascular diseases are among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Advanced imaging techniques such as 4D magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) enable quantitative assessment of hemodynamic and functional parameters beyond conventional imaging. The aim of this study is to evaluate the association between 4D MRI derived parameters and the occurrence, severity, and prognosis of major chronic diseases, and to explore their potential role as imaging biomarkers.
