Myocardial perfusion studies are among the most often performed investigations in Nuclear Medicine. However, the development of radiopharmaceuticals for cardiology is an emerging discipline and several other radiotracers have been proven to be useful. Although the myocardial perfusion studies have a well established role in the management of cardiac disorders, still a number of radiopharmaceuticals are under development for a variety of specific cardiac indications and their eventual clinical role remains to be seen. The paper provides a short overview of currently used radiopharmaceuticals and potential molecular imaging radiotracers applicable in cardiology.
