Nuclear Cardiology: From Consolidation to Integration
DOI: 10.36660/abcimg.20260007i
Introduction
Over the past decade, nuclear cardiology has undergone a profound transformation.– What was once primarily a diagnostic tool focused on ischemia detection has evolved into a comprehensive platform for physiological understanding, risk stratification, and precision cardiovascular care.,- In this context, the field has shifted from simply identifying disease to elucidating its underlying mechanisms, echoing Marie Curie’s insight that “nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood.”
The year 2025 did not stand out for isolated disruptive discoveries, but rather for something equally important: clinical consolidation.,, During this period, previously emerging concepts matured into actionable clinical paradigms, allowing the field to move from promise to practice.,
