Anabolic-androgenic steroids (AAS) are widely abused for enhancing muscle mass, strength, growth and improving athletic performance.
In recent years, many observational and interventional studies have shown important adverse cardiovascular effects of AAS abuse.
This review discusses established and future perspectives of novel molecular imaging techniques that may serve as potential tools for early detection of AAS-associated cardiovascular disorders.
合成代谢雄激素类固醇（AAS）被广泛滥用以增加肌肉质量、力量、生长和提高运动表现。
近年来，许多观察性和干预性研究表明 AAS 滥用对心血管有重要的不良影响。
本文综述了新型分子影像学技术的现有和未来研究进展，这些技术可能成为早期检测 AAS 相关心血管疾病的潜在工具。
