Nuclear imaging plays a pivotal role not only in in the evaluation of myocardial ischemia, but also in the evaluation of cardiac infectious, inflammatory, infiltrative and innervation disorders. Myocardial ischemia and viability, cardiac amyloidosis, sarcoidosis, large vessel vasculitis, infective endocarditis, infected cardiac implantable electronic devices, vascular graft infection, and myocardial innervation dysfunction are the main indications for the use of nuclear medicine procedures in both diagnosis and response assessment. With this summarized paper we share a comprehensive review of the role and the use of nuclear cardiology in different cardiac diseases.

Abstract
Nuclear imaging plays a pivotal role not only in in the evaluation of myocardial ischemia, but also in the evaluation of cardiac infectious, inflammatory, infiltrative and innervation disorders. Myocardial ischemia and viability, cardiac amyloidosis, sarcoidosis, large vessel vasculitis, infective endocarditis, infected cardiac implantable electronic devices, vascular graft infection, and myocardial innervation dysfunction are the main indications for the use of nuclear medicine procedures in both diagnosis and response assessment. With this summarized paper we share a comprehensive review of the role and the use of nuclear cardiology in different cardiac diseases.Pubblicazioni consigliate
