Use of Novel PET Agent F-18-labeled Glucaric Acid to Image Isoproterenol-Induced Myocardial Injury

Conclusion: Based on the results, we conclude that 18F-FGA effectively localizes in isoproteronol-induced cardiomyopathy and has a potential to serve as an infarct-avid agent for localizing MI by PET.
