Nuclear Molecular Imaging of the Failing Heart

Abstract: Nuclear imaging of the failing myocardium is targeting the impaired part related to several processes of myocardial metabolism or work. Myocardium mainly utilizes fatty acid or glucose for ATP production in mitochondria. Intracellular calcium handling, which needs an amount of ATPs, induces myocardial contraction and relaxation, and is regulated with beta adrenal-stimulation. In the failing myocardium, any of these parts related to the myocardial work are variedly impaired, and could be the imaging target. Des… Show more
