FIGURE 1. PET of mouse heart at baseline (A) and 7 d after MI (B). For each study, a coronal whole-body slice at the level of LV and bladder with superimposed body contour is shown on left-hand side. Arrow indicates apex of LV (site of infarcted tissue after MI). On right-hand side, short-axis (SA) slices from apex to base, vertical long-axis (VLA) slices from septum to lateral wall, and horizontal long-axis (HLA) slices from anterior to inferior wall show superb "human-like" image quality in mice.
