AbstractWith increasing aging population, the numbers of cardiovascular disease especially heart failure (HF) has been increasing and management of HF patients are emerging topic in clinical setting. Cardiac metabolism appears to change in HF patients. The main resource of cardiac metabolism shifts from fatty acid metabolism to glucose metabolism. This metabolic shifts typically appears in HF due to coronary artery disease (CAD). 18F-FDG PET has been approved to detect dysfunctional but viable myocardium in Japan and US. 18F-FDG PET plays an important role for making indication for coronary artery revascularization. HF is characterized by an energy-depleted states. Increasing afterload increases the metabolic demand. HF treatments reduce th...
