Positron emission tomography (15O-water, 11C-acetate, 11C-HED) risk markers and nonsustained ventricular tachycardia in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

Background: The objectives of the study were to describe positron emission tomography (PET) parameters, using the tracers 15O-water at rest/stress, 11C-acetate, and 11C-HED, with regard to nonsustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT) in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). PET offers quantitative asses...
