Abstract
The present paper provides an overview of selected articles published by French research teams that are representative of recent advances in the field of nuclear cardiology, particularly in connection with the advent of new dedicated cardiac CZT cameras. The topics discussed here cover the impact of respiratory motion correction in myocardial perfusion imaging, global and regional LV function assessment using CZT cameras, innovative approaches in MIBG imaging, and RV function analysis by means of gated blood pool SPECT.
