Positron Emission Tomography (PET) with 18F-FGA for Diagnosis of Myocardial Infarction in a Coronary Artery Ligation Model

Location and extent of necrosis are valuable information in the management of myocardial infarction (MI). Methods. We investigated 2-deoxy-2-18F-fluoro glucaric acid (FGA), a novel infarct-avid agent, for positron emission tomography (PET) of MI. We synthesized FGA from commercially available 18F-fl...
