Abstract
Positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance (PET/MRI) hybrid imaging is now available for over a decade and although the quantity of installed systems is rather low, the number of emerging applications for cardiovascular diseases is still growing. PET/MRI provides integrated images of high quality anatomical and functional assessment obtained by MRI with the possibilities of PET for quantification of molecular parameters such as metabolism, inflammation, and perfusion. In recent years, sequential co-registration of myocardial tissue characterization with its molecular data had become an increasingly helpful tool in clinical practice and an integrated device simplifies this task. This review summarizes recent developments and future possibilities in the use of the PET/MRI in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular disorders.
期刊介绍:
Seminars in Nuclear Medicine is the leading review journal in nuclear medicine. Each issue brings you expert reviews and commentary on a single topic as selected by the Editors. The journal contains extensive coverage of the field of nuclear medicine, including PET, SPECT, and other molecular imaging studies, and related imaging studies. Full-color illustrations are used throughout to highlight important findings. Seminars is included in PubMed/Medline, Thomson/ISI, and other major scientific indexes.
