F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose uptake and water-perfusable tissue fraction in assessment of myocardial viability

OBJECTIVES: (15)O-water-perfusable tissue fraction (PTF) has been shown to be a potential index for assessing myocardial viability in PET, an alternative to (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG). This study aimed to directly compare these two independent methods in assessing myocardial viability in patient...
