pubmed-article:6297857 | pubmed:abstractText | A patient had severe congestive cardiomyopathy secondary to myocardial sarcoidosis. The clinical diagnosis was confirmed by radionuclide ventriculography, thallium 201 (201Tl), gallium-67 (67Ga), and technetium-99m (99mTc) pyrophosphate (TcPYP) scintigraphy. Myocardial TcPYP uptake has not been reported previously in sarcoidosis. In this patient, TcPYP was as useful as gallium scanning and thallium imaging in documenting the myocardial process. | lld:pubmed |
