A semi-quantitative score (MUS) for myocardial uptake of\n 68<\/jats:sup>\n Ga-DOTATATE was developed by measuring mean standardized uptake value (SUV) in five myocardial regions, corrected by blood pool activity, and MUS was validated between two readers. We investigated the relationship between MUS and presence of cardiac disease or risk factors, including Framingham score and coronary calcification.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n A total of 145 scans were included (79 women; mean age = 56.9\u2009\u2009\u00b1\u2009\u200913.7 years). Inter-reader agreement was excellent with intraclass correlation coefficient (r)\u2009\u2009=\u2009\u20090.964 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.903\u20130.987; P\u2009<\u20090.001). There was a weak but significant positive correlation between MUS and presence of coronary calcifications (Spearman rho\u2009\u2009=\u2009\u20090.20; P\u2009=\u20090.016). MUS was higher in patients with heart disease or risk factors (n\u2009=\u200983, mean MUS 2.03, 95% CI = 1.85\u20132.21) compared to those without (n\u2009=\u200923, mean MUS 1.40, 95% CI = 1.17\u20131.62; P\u2009<\u20090.001), although the cardiac disease group was older with a higher percentage of men (62.0 years, 57.8% men compared to 47.6 years, 13.0% men; P value <0.0001 for both comparisons).<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n \n For patients undergoing\n 68<\/jats:sup>\n Ga-DOTATATE PET\/CT scan, an elevated MUS might indicate an underlying heart
