Abstract

Background: Inflammation appears to be important in the pathogenesis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods and Results: Cardiac [18-F]-fluoro-deoxy-glucose (FDG) uptake by positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT)-scan was investigated in 12 fasting patients with first AMI (FAMI) single-vessel disease after successful primary percutaneous coronary intervention and at 9 weeks follow-up, and in 12 controls. The average FDG uptake (aFDGu) of the 28 left ventricular (LV) wall segments defined on the PET/CT images of the 12 FAMI patients was 1.28±0.57-fold higher than the activity present in the LV cavity. By contrast, the aFDGu of the 12 controls was 0.70±22 (p
