Routine use of cardiac sympathetic imaging in HF has been limited by the lower availability/sensitivity of radiotracers. This study was aimed to assess the feasibility of 18F-FDOPA (commonly available PET-radiotracer) in assessment of cardiac autonomic dysfunction. Twenty-four controls (46.5 ± 11.1 years, 16men) and 24 patients (43.5 ± 11.0 years, 18men) with diagnosed HF (Framingham-Criteria) underwent cardiac-PET/CT. Region(s) Of Interest were drawn over entire left ventricular myocardium (LV), individual walls, and mediastinum (M). Coefficient of Variation (CV) was calculated from individual wall counts. HF patients had significantly lower myocardial 18F-FDOPA uptake (P < .001, independent t test) than controls 32.4% ± 9.5% global reduction; highest in apex (39.9% ± 7.0%). A cut-off of LV/M ≤ 1.68 could differentiate patients from controls with sensitivity and specificity of 100% and 95.8%, respectively. LV/M correlated positively with EF (Pearson coefficient = 0.460, P .031). During follow-up, 3 patients were lost to follow-up, 4 died (survival-20.5 ± 4 months), 2 worsened, and 15 remained stable/showed mild improvement. Patients who worsened/died during follow-up had higher CV than those with stable/improving symptoms 0.16 ± 0.05 vs 0.11 ± 0.05, P value .069 (independent t test); Cox regression P = .084. Myocardial 18F-FDOPA uptake in patients with HF is significantly reduced. Higher reduction is seen in those with lower EF. CV, a maker of regional heterogeneity, is a potential prognostic marker.
