Noninvasive Measurement of Mouse Myocardial Glucose Uptake with 18F-FDG

TO THE EDITOR: I read with interest the recent publication by Thorn et al. ([1][1]) using vena cava image-derived input functions for quantification of myocardial glucose uptake (MGU). The authors demonstrated that using vena cava PET image–derived input functions permits reproducible noninvasive
