  • Radiolabeled dimethyl branched long chain fatty acid for heart imaging
    Patent number: 4764358
    Abstract: A radiolabeled long chain fatty acid for heart imaging that has dimethyl branching at one of the carbons of the chain which inhibits the extent to which oxidation can occur. The closer to the carboxyl the branching is positioned, the more limited the oxidation, thereby resulting in prolonged retention of the radiolabeled compound in the heart.
