Impact of carbohydrate restriction with and without fatty acid loading on myocardial (18)F-FDG uptake during PET: A randomized controlled trial

BACKGROUND: Low-carbohydrate (LC) and high-fat, low-carbohydrate (HFLC) dietary preparations may enhance (18)F-FDG-PET-based imaging of small, inflamed structures near the heart by suppressing myocardial FDG signal. We compared myocardial (18)F-FDG uptake in patients randomized to LC, HFLC, and unre...
