(A) Representative cross-sectional short-axis images at a midventricular level on dual-radiotracer autoradiography with ¹⁸F-LMI1195 and ²⁰¹Tl. ¹⁸F-LMI1195 distribution was homogeneous throughout the left ventricular wall and no significant differences in radiotracer activity were detected in mid-ventricular short axis slices. This is in contradistinction to the autoradiography (ARG) of ²⁰¹Tl: A slight discrepant uptake pattern in the subepicardial wall portion can be appreciated compared to ¹⁸F-LMI1195 ARG. (B) Transmural wall line profile of both ¹⁸F-LMI1195 and ²⁰¹Tl. The macroscopic findings were further corroborated quantitatively: Compared to the subendocardial wall section, radiotracer activity for ²⁰¹Tl was significantly lower in the subepicardial wall portion. ¹⁸F-LMI1195 remained stable over all three section (subendocardial portion, mid-portion, and subepicardial portion).
