Figure 3

(A-D) 18FDG PET/MRI short and long axis views acquired in mice on day 5 after MI using different anesthesia (K/X: Ketamine/Xylazine). Insets show PET signal. MRI used delayed enhancement cine gradient echo. (E,F) Autoradiography of short axis rings in mice with isoflurane (E) versus K/X (F). Insets depict the infarct as unstained pale tissue on TTC. (G) Infarct to remote myocardium SUV ratio in 18FDG scans with respective anesthesia. Mean ± SEM. *P<0.01. (H,I) 18FDG PET/CT in a patient 5 days after right coronary artery occlusion shows increased PET signal in the injured inferior LV wall.
