Evaluating cardiac hypoxia in hibernating myocardium: Comparison of 99mTc-MIBI/18F-fluorodeoxyglucose and 18F-fluoromisonidazole positron emission tomography-computed tomography in relation to normal, hibernating, and infarct myocardium

Evaluating cardiac hypoxia in hibernating myocardium: Comparison of 99mTc-MIBI/18F-fluorodeoxyglucose and 18F-fluoromisonidazole positron emission tomography-computed tomography in relation to normal, hibernating, and infarct myocardium

The aim of this prospective study was to explore the feasibility of 18F-fluoromisonidazole (18F-FMISO) cardiac positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in the detection of cardiac hypoxia in patients of ischemic heart disease (IHD) and to compare the uptake pattern with that of 99mT...
