OSTI ID:5636322
A patient with malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the heart is described who was initially presented with a left atrial tumor. Subsequent /sup 201/Tl and /sup 67/Ga scintigraphy showed massive uptake of the tracers by the tumor and the pattern of uptake was thought to reflect underlying necrosis and hemorrhage within the tumor.
