A Metabolic Intravascular Platform to Study FDG Uptake in Vascular Injury

ConclusionIn this study, we validated a tunable very sensitive metabolic sensor platform that can be used for the detection of vascular metabolism, such as inflammation. This sensor can be used not only for the detection of macrophage activity but, with alternative probes, it could allow the detection of other pathophysiological processes.
