Longitudinal imaging of murine atherosclerosis with 2-deoxy-2-[18F]fluoro-D-glucose and [18F]-sodium fluoride in genetically modified Apolipoprotein E knock-out and wild type mice
Abstract In a longitudinal design, four arterial segments in mice were followed by positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging. We aimed to determine how the tracers reflected the development of atherosclerosis via the uptake of 2-deoxy-2-[18F]fluoro-D-glucose ([18F]FDG) for im...
