Bone scintigram in cardiac amyloidosis: a case report.

A Ali, D A Turner, S W Rosenbush, E W Fordham.   

Abstract

Intense, diffuse localization of Tc-99m-pyrophosphate was demonstrated in the right and left ventricles of a patient with biopsy-proved amyloidosis and severe congestive heart failure. This finding is strong presumptive evidence of myocardial infiltration by amyloid in the presence of biopsy-proven amyloidosis elsewhere in the body.
