We have already shown that myocardial imaging properties of radio-iodinated long-chain free fatty acids (123I-FFA) and thallium 201 (201TI) are comparable in detecting areas of inadequate myocardial perfusion (van der Wall et al. 1980). Besides confirming our earlier observations, the present study
The imaging properties of 123I-16-iodo-9-hexadecenoic acid (123I-HA), a terminally iodinated 17-carbon atom fatty acid analogue, were compared with Thallium-201 (201Tl). Because of its shorter half-life, favourable photon-energy and rapid myocardial turnover rate, 123I-HA possesses potential
BACKGROUND
De novo lipogenesis (DNL) is an endogenous pathway whereby carbohydrates and proteins are converted to fatty acids. DNL could affect coronary heart disease (CHD) or sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) via generation of specific fatty acids. Whether these fatty acids are prospectively associated
