Characterizing the inflammatory tissue response to acute myocardial infarction by clinical multimodality noninvasive imaging.
Tim Wollenweber,Philipp Roentgen,Andreas Schäfer,Imke Schatka,Caroline Zwadlo,Thomas Brunkhorst,Georg Berding,Johann Bauersachs,Frank M. Bengel +8 more
TL;DR: Increased glucose utilization after heparin-induced suppression of myocyte uptake appears to mostly reflect inflammatory activity in damaged myocardium early after MI, consistent with prior preclinical observations and in contrast to chronic MI.

Simultaneous dual-isotope solid-state detector SPECT for improved tracking of white blood cells in suspected endocarditis.
Federico Caobelli,Tim Wollenweber,Udo Bavendiek,Christian Kühn,Christian Schütze,Lilli Geworski,James T. Thackeray,Johann Bauersachs,Axel Haverich,Frank M. Bengel +9 more
TL;DR: Simultaneous multi-isotope imaging with 111In and 99mTc is feasible and aids in the workup of suspected endocarditis and improves the accuracy of molecular/cellular cardiac imaging.

Peptide receptor-targeted radionuclide therapy alters inflammation in atherosclerotic plaques.
TL;DR: To the Editor: In recent years, various techniques to identify high-risk atherosclerotic plaques have been introduced, but development of therapies targeted at plaque vulnerability is lagging behind.

Monitoring tafamidis treatment with quantitative SPECT/CT in transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy.
René Rettl,Tim Wollenweber,Franz Duca,Christina Binder,B. Cherouny,Theresa-Marie Dachs,Camuz Ligios Luciana,Lore Schrutka,Daniel Dalos,Dietrich Beitzke,Christian Loewe,Roza Badr Eslam,Johannes Kastner,Marcus Hacker,Diana Bonderman +14 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated the relationship between treatment response and cardiac amyloid burden identified by serial quantitative 99mTc-DPD SPECT/CT imaging and identified nuclear imaging biomarkers that could be used to quantify and monitor response to tafamidis therapy.

TL;DR: Although SPECT and PET imaging of myocardial metabolism and autonomic innervation are already embedded in clinical practice, various additional targets, probes, and techniques are under development that hold promise to become a future key in personalizing cardiovascular care.
