Abstract
Stem cell therapy has a unique potential and promises hope for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction. Preclinical studies have identified barriers to clinical translation, one of which involves the monitoring of transplanted cells and the elucidation of their fates in vivo. Molecular imaging may help the solutions for these challenges. In this review, we illustrate the mechanisms by which molecular imaging enables insights into and the development of stem cell therapy.Entities:
