Abstract

Cardiac positron emission tomography (PET) is increasingly utilized in clinical practice. This review examines the latest clinical practice guidelines from the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA), the European Society of Cardiology (ESC), the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation (ISHLT), and multisocietal consensus statements as of December 2024, to assess the extent to which cardiac PET is incorporated into their recommendations.
