Abstract:
Structural variations in the carbon chain of free fatty acids influence the uptake of free fatty acids in the myocardium. To enable the use of free fatty acids in nuclear cardiology, various methods of introducing gamma-emitting isotopes have been evaluated. The uptake of various free fatty acids is described and structure-activity relationships deduced.
