ABSTRACT
Today non invasive cardiovascular imaging techniques exist, such as positron emission tomography (PET) and 16 multislice computed tomography (16-MSCT). With these studies, it is possible to evaluate the function and anatomy of the heart respectively. There is not enough information in the literature about the usefulness for 16-MSCT in the evaluation of infarcts. In this article, we show images of a patient who arrived to our institution and in whom it was possible to obtain important information with both imaging techniques. With the results, we obtained a good correlation of an infarct zone with PET and 16-MSCT. 16-MSCT is a good technique for observing infarcted zones of the heart. PET/CT is a non invasive cardiovascular imaging technique capable of giving enough anatomic and functional information.
