Dependence of Cardiac ^sup 11^C-meta-Hydroxyephedrine Retention on Norepinephrine Transporter Density

The norepinephrine analog ^sup 11^C-meta-hydroxyephedrine (HED) is used with PET to map the regional distribution of cardiac sympathetic neurons. HED is rapidly transported into sympathetic neurons by the norepinephrine transporter (NET) and stored in vesicles. Although much is known about the neuro...
