In vivo PET/CT imaging. Images represent radioactivity distribution at 30–60 min after injection. (a) A whole-body coronal PET/CT image, (b) contrast-enhanced CT image with anatomical landmarks (AA, aortic arch; M, myocardium; L, lung; LV, left ventricle), (c) combined PET/CT and (d) PET show a more detailed radioactivity distribution in the thoracic region. Mean time-activity curves represent selected tissues of three atherosclerotic mice (e), as well as blood pool and aortic arch in both atherosclerotic (n = 3) and control mice (n = 3) (f).
