Positron Emission Tomography

Quantification of cardiac function using positron emission tomography and: a)11C-meta-hydroxyephedrine \[HED, 20 mCi (740 MBq)\] to quantify sympathetic nerve function, b) 13N-ammonia \[NH3, 20 mCi (740 MBq)\] for regional perfusion, and c) 18F-2-deoxyglucose \[FDG; 6.5 mCi (241 MBq)\] administered during a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp to assess viability.
