Brief Summary
This study is being done to determine if a picture taking test of the heart, positron emission tomography/computed tomography (or cardiac PET/CT), can identify the blockages in the heart arteries that lead to heart attacks when compared to the standard of heart catheterization.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Number of Participants With Clear Anatomical Landmarks Confirmed by CT
Coronary FDG uptake will be measured at the site of coronary stenosis. The target coronary stenosis will be identified by its proximity to a clear anatomical landmark seen on CT and conventional angiography.
During PET CT scan, an average of 2 hours
Study Arms (1)
Positron Emitting Image
EXPERIMENTALPatient will have a PET/CT imaging study to determine cardiac stenosis, F-18 FDG and heparin/intralipid infusion and Contrast Dye.will be administered.
Interventions
Patient will have one imaging modality - a Positron Emitting Tomography CT which includes F-18 FDG and heparin/intralipid infusion and Contrast Dye.
