A composition containing levosimendan, one or more solubilizing and/or stabilizing agents, and one or more additional pharmaceutically acceptable additives. The one or more solubilizing and/or stabilizing agents may be a cyclodextrin or a cyclodextrin derivative. The cyclodextrin derivative may be a derivative of an alpha-cyclodextrin, or beta-cyclodextrin, or a gamma-cyclodextrin. The cyclodextrin derivative may contain a butyl ether spacer group, an alkyl ether space group, or both. The one or more additional pharmaceutically acceptable additives may be a non-citrate buffer. The composition may be used in a method of treating a health condition, such as heart failure, pulmonary hypertension, chronic kidney disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, stroke, in advance of a planned cardiac surgery, or other health conditions for which a minimally invasive or repeated administration of levosimendan may be beneficial. The composition may be administered subcutaneously.

The present invention provides compounds with imaging moieties for imaging a subject. The present invention also relates to systems, compositions, and methods for the synthesis and use of imaging agents, or precursors thereof. An imaging agent precursor may be converted to an imaging agent using the methods described herein. In some cases, a composition or plurality of imaging agents is enriched in .sup.18F. In some cases, an imaging agent may be used to image an area of interest in a subject, including, but not limited to, the heart, cardiovascular system, cardiac vessels, brain, and other organs.
