Love to see this, but the right answer should have been repeat the scan with longer ketosis, we're finally getting there

Reminds me of cards fellows looking at SPECT

Stress perfusion battle royale! Through head to head comparison of stress perfusion #CMR vs 82Rb #cvPET after #YesCCT , both approaches had moderate sensitivities & high specificities to discriminate obstructive #cvCAD by #FFR . bit.ly/3BkBQZb

A new Penn Cardiology #clinicalcase aimed to:

👉formulate diagnoses of persistent FDG uptake on serial PET imaging

👉understand the mechanistic rationale of alt. causes that may result in persistent FDG uptake

Not always more is better, this study confirms that. Just image the chest in this population.

If you adjust for LGE, FDG is no longer predictive of adverse events in patients with suspected inflammatory cardiomyopathy (it seems)

Myocardial injury in patients with #COVID19 & suspected cardiac involvement is not well understood.

This 📄 by Mahesh Vidula, MD et al. aimed to characterize myocardial injury in these patients referred for #CMR .

Through #cvNuc FDG-PET, a favorable response was more common when using moderate-to-high intensity steroids. After nearly 5 years, biopsy-proven and with preserved systolic function were less likely to experience adverse outcomes. bit.ly/3isrRLd

Mental stress-induced myocardial ischemia appears to carry a stronger risk than conventional stress–induced ischemia for CV death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, or heart failure hospitalization. jwat.ch/3D8gj4x #cardiology Karol Watson

More and more evidence of the important prognostic value of CFR independent of the condition
