Angiotensin II type 1 receptor imaging The angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) is the primary receptor of the RAAS in myocardium. Experimental studies suggest that it mediates proinflammatory, proapoptotic and profibrotic processes in maladaptive conditions. Clinically, it has been shown that AT1R blockade improves outcome after myocardial infarction. Carbon-11 labeled AT1R blocker
