Abstract
We assessed the changes in cardiac condition in a patient with cardiac amyloidosis, by means of dual nuclei single photon emission computed tomographic (SPECT) images with technetium-99m-hydroxymethylene diphosphonate (99mTc-HMDP) and thallium-201 (201Tl). Dual SPECT showed a marked increase in myocardial 99mTc-HMDP accumulation along with deterioration of symptoms and signs, while 201Tl scintigraphy remained almost unchanged.Entities:
