Abstract
A rare case of benign cardiac fibroma causing a focal defect on TI-201 imaging in an adult patient is presented. The abnormalities on the TI-201 scan are correlated with other studies performed on the same patient. The usefulness of the TI-201 myocardial perfusion scan as an early, noninvasive test in cardiac workup is stressed.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
