Availability of PET tracers and MRI approaches for a convergent hybrid PET/MRI approach to the study of cardiac inflammation post-MI. This figure is an attempt to integrate the PET tracers and MRI approaches available for the study of inflammation post-MI under the categories of myocyte glucose metabolism, detection of inflammatory cells, measurement of blood flow, examination of changes in the extracellular matrix (not discussed in the review), and cell death (apoptosis section). The intent is to suggest a synthesis of the available independent toolbox for PET and MRI into hybrid PET/MRI.
