Gallium imaging in pulmonary artery sarcoma mimicking pulmonary embolism: case report.

P J Myerson, D A Myerson, R Katz, J P Lawson.   

Abstract

Primary pulmonary artery sarcoma provides perfusion-ventilation images, as well as arteriographic studies, that can suggest pulmonary embolism. The awareness of atypical correlation among the studies for pulmonary embolism can lead to an early suspicion of pulmonary artery tumor. Imaging with 67Ga-citrate may facilitate earlier diagnosis.
