PET RX's

Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging is a critical tool in modern medical diagnostics, utilized for various applications based on the radioactive tracers used. Nitrogen-13 and Rubidium-82 are employed for myocardial perfusion imaging, helping to identify areas of reversible myocardial ischemia or infarcted myocardium, particularly in patients with coronary artery disease.
