- Abstract
A positron emission tomography (PET) imaging tracer that provides a meaningful and clinically deployable risk assessment in coronary artery disease (CAD) has been sought enthusiastically for over a decade. As the clinical implications of findings from SP 18 sp F-NaF PET imaging in CAD are increasingly clarified, several key knowledge gaps remain (Table 1).
