Cardiovascular molecular imaging RADIOLOGY Wu, J. C., Bengel, F. M., Gambhir, S. S. 2007; 244 (2): 337-355

Abstract

The goal of this review is to highlight how molecular imaging will impact the management and improved understanding of the major cardiovascular diseases that have substantial clinical impact and research interest. These topics include atherosclerosis, myocardial ischemia, myocardial viability, heart failure, gene therapy, and stem cell transplantation. Traditional methods of evaluation for these diseases will be presented first, followed by methods that incorporate conventional and molecular imaging approaches.
