Abstract

Fluorescent X-ray computed tomography (FXCT) enables visualization of myocardial fatty acid metabolism by using non-radio-iodinated I-5-(p-iodophenyl)-3-(R,S)-methylpentadecanoice acid (BMIPP). In this experiment, age-dependent myocardial metabolic impairment was successfully imaged and analyzed quantitatively in J2N-k cardiomyopathic hamster using FXCT.
