DOI: 10.1186/s12872-018-0943-9
Abstract: BackgroundIn diabetes, dysregulated substrate utilization and energy metabolism of myocardium can lead to heart failure. To examine the dynamic changes of myocardium, most of the previous studies conducted dynamic myocardial PET imaging following euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic clamp,… read more here.
