Abstract
Beneficial mechanisms of bone marrow cell (BMC) therapy for acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarct (STEMI) are largely unknown in humans. Therefore, we evaluated the feasibility of serial positron emission tomography (PET) and MRI studies to provide insight into the effects of BMCs on the healing process of ischemic myocardial damage. - See more at: http://journal.frontiersin.org/Journal/10.3389/fphys.2012.00006/full#sthash.SChoWw38.dpuf
