Myocardial glucose metabolism in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: assessment by F-18-FDG PET study.

abstract：:123I-BMIPP (beta-methyl-iodophenyl pentadecanoic acid) has shown unique properties for potential use in assessing myocardial metabolism. Previous basic and clinical studies demonstrated that the disturbances of myocardial metabolism precede the occurrence of myocardial perfusion abnormalities by using 201Tl in hypertr...
