Excerpt

The myocardial sympathetic innervation plays a pivotal role in the progression of heart failure and in the occurrence of life-threatening arrhythmias. An impaired function of presynaptic sympathetic nerve terminals is considered to reflect impaired reuptake and thus impaired removal of the neurotransmitter from the synaptic cleft [1], resulting in overexposure of the myocardium to catecholamines and in a pre/post-synaptic signaling imbalance [2]. Consistent with this pathophysiologic model, prospective, large-scale clinical trials confirmed an excellent prognostic value of adrenergic imaging in patients with heart failure, both with single photon emission tomography (SPECT) and with positron emission tomography (PET) [3, 4]. …
