a: heart failure ~
b: an engine that's out of fuel
What:
"There is a hypothesis that heart failure is like an engine that's out of fuel," said Denney, "So what we are doing with this imaging technique is we're imaging the fuel that the heart muscle runs on. The idea is that if we could detect an early drop in that fuel, we could intervene earlier and possibly do a better job treating the patient."
