Experimental Myocardial Imaging with 131I-Labeled Oleic Acid

摘要: Long-chain fatty acids are the principal lipid energy source in cellular oxidation and absorbed particularly well by myocardium. The authors demonstrate a favorable distribution of 131I-labeled oleic acid following intravenous administration rabbits, as successful myocardial imaging dogs before after experimental coronary embolization with metallic Hg.
