Fatty Acid Imaging of the Heart

Imaging metabolic processes in the human heart yields valuable insights into the mechanisms contributing to myocardial pathology and allows assessment of the efficacy of therapies designed to treat cardiac disease. Recent advances in fatty acid (FA) imaging using positron emission tomography (PET) i...
