The autonomic nervous system regulates normal cardiovascular function and plays a critical
role in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular disease. Further understanding of the interplay
between the autonomic nervous system and cardiovascular system holds promise for the
development of neuroscience-based cardiovascular therapeutics. To this end, techniques to
image myocardial innervation will help provide a basis for understanding the fundamental
underpinnings of cardiac neural control. In this review, we detail the evolution of gross and …
