Myocardial perfusion and oxidative metabolism in healthy subjects: sex-specific insights from vasodilatory stress 11C-acetate PET
This study assesses reference ranges and demonstrates significant sex-based differences in myocardial perfusion and oxidative metabolism using vasodilatory stress <sup>11</sup>C-acetate PET. These findings provide a valuable physiological framework for assessing perfusion-metabolism abnormalities in clinical practice.
