Purpose of ReviewAutonomic innervation is crucial for regulating cardiac function. Sympathetic innervation imaging with 123I-mIBG and analogous PET tracers assesses disease in ways that differ from customary methods. This review describes practical use in various clinical scenarios, discusses recent guidelines, presents new data confirming risk stratification power, describes an ongoing prospective study, and looks forward to wider use in patient management.
