Pediatric Cardiac PET/CT Imaging - 08/06/20
, Miguel Hernandez Pampaloni, MD, PhD cRésumé |
With the routine availability of PET/CT imaging for oncologic purposes, there has been renewed interest in and acceptance of cardiac and neurologic applications of PET/CT. As our understanding of the pathophysiology underlying various pediatric heart diseases has improved, there has been a parallel advance in imaging modalities. Cardiac MR imaging and cardiac PET continue to improve in the pediatric domain. Molecular imaging holds promise to provide a more robust assessment of the cardiac pathophysiology in a 1-stop setting with less radiation exposure to the patient, an important consideration for the pediatric patient population.
