Lactate is a key myocardial energy source. Lactate metabolism is altered in a variety of conditions, such as exercise and diabetes mellitus. However, to our knowledge, noninvasive quantitative measurements of myocardial lactate metabolism have never been performed because of the lack of an adequate radiotracer. In this study we tested L-3-(11)C-lac...
