Title: Detection of benign cardiac fibroma on thallium-201 imaging in an adult

Journal Article · · Clin. Nucl. Med.; (United States)

A rare case of benign cardiac fibroma causing a focal defect on Tl-201 imaging in an adult patient is presented. The abnormalities on the Tl-201 scan are correlated with other studies performed on the same patient. The usefulness of the Tl-201 myocardial perfusion scan as an early, noninvasive test in cardiac workup is stressed.
