D Atherosclerotic inflammation imaging using68ga-dotatate pet vs.18f-fdg pet: a prospective clinical sudy with molecular and histological validation
Abstract
Background
Inflammation drives atherosclerotic plaque rupture underlying most clinical events. While inflammation can be measured using 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET), 18F-FDG lacks cell-specificity and is unreliable for coronary imaging owing to myocardial signal spillover. Up-regulation of somatostatin receptor-2 (SST2) occurs in activated macrophages offering a novel inflammation imaging target....Paper Details
