This research study is looking at how chronic kidney disease affects the heart using special imaging technology called 18F-FAPI PET/MR. Researchers want to understand the connection between kidney function and heart health by taking detailed pictures of your heart in people with different stages of kidney disease. This imaging may help doctors better understand and treat patients whose kidneys and hearts are both affected.
People with chronic kidney disease often develop heart problems, but doctors don't fully understand why or how to predict it. This study aims to identify early signs of heart damage in kidney disease patients so that doctors can catch and treat these problems sooner.

If you enroll, you will receive a specialized imaging scan called 18F-FAPI PET/MR that takes detailed pictures of your heart and shows how well it's working. The scan is painless but requires you to lie still in the imaging machine for a period of time. You'll be divided into one of two groups based on your kidney function stage, and researchers will compare the heart imaging results between the groups to understand the connection between kidney and heart health.
