Abstract

In addition to the standard cardiovascular pharmacological treatment and catheter-based and surgical procedures, cardiac restorative therapy was recently introduced. Despite the encouraging results obtained in pre-clinical research, cardiac regenerative therapy is still not used in clinical practice, because of the modest effect on cardiac function. To improve cardiac regenerative strategies, the identification of non-invasive powerful tools is required. Due to availability of various radiotracers and acquisition protocols nuclear imaging is the most promising and can be used both in gene and in cell therapy. This review summarizes current status and future role of nuclear imaging in the area of myocardial regeneration.
