Brief Summary

Evaluation of use of ranolazine in patients with stable heart pain with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI) and phosphorous-31 magnetic resonance spectroscopy (31P MRS). Subsequent testing using...

Detailed Description

Specific Aim: To determine in patients with stable coronary artery disease with documented inducible ischemia, if treatment with ranolazine leads to reduced intracellular ischemia as detected by CMR ...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Age \>18 years of age with stable angina pectoris or an anginal equivalent symptom (e.g. atypical chest discomfort, dyspnea, easy fatigue) AND
