Molecular imaging agent coupled with 'motion frozen' processing improves heart imaging

Monday, June 7, 2010 - 16:52 in Physics & Chemistry

Molecular imaging of the heart just got better, according to a study revealed at SNM's 57th Annual Meeting. Combining a potential new imaging agent with a molecular imaging technique that reduces blur caused by the motion of the heart and lungs could lead to unprecedented image quality when conducting myocardial perfusion imaging, a procedure used to evaluate blood flow to the heart.
