Time-robust myocardial [68Ga]Ga-FAPI PET biomarker reflects aortic stenosis severity and predicts post-TAVI outcomes

Myocardial [<sup>68</sup>Ga]Ga-FAPI TBR may provide a time-robust index of active fibroblast signaling that relates to myocardial hemodynamic stress and stratifies one-year clinical response after TAVI. A single 60-minute acquisition with TBR quantification may be sufficient for myocardial [<sup>68</sup>Ga]Ga-FAPI assessment. These hypothesis-generating findings require validation in larger, multicenter cohorts.

Abstract

Myocardial [<sup>68</sup>Ga]Ga-FAPI TBR may provide a time-robust index of active fibroblast signaling that relates to myocardial hemodynamic stress and stratifies one-year clinical response after TAVI. A single 60-minute acquisition with TBR quantification may be sufficient for myocardial [<sup>68</sup>Ga]Ga-FAPI assessment. These hypothesis-generating findings require validation in larger, multicenter cohorts.
