Abstract

Nuclear medicine has progressed in conjunction with the recent growth of molecular medicine. Myocardial energy metabolism has long been investigated in experimental models with the use of Langendorff's method or coronary sinus blood sampling. However, the introduction of a variety of radiopharmaceutical agents has now made possible easy visualization of myocardial energy metabolism in vivo with nuclear medicine techniques.
