  • Title: Single image pericardial effusion evaluation with technetium compounds.
    Author: Cook CB, Dunson G, McFarland P, Godwin ID.
    Journal: South Med J; 1975 Apr; 68(4):392-4. PubMed ID: 1124403.
    Abstract:
    Three cases of suspected pericardial effusion were evaluated with rapid, noninvasive procedure, combined use of macroaggregated albumin technetium 99m and human serum albumin technetium 99m to produce a single radiography showing the heart, liver, and lung perfusion simultaneously. This technic confirmed the diagnosis of pericardial effusion in two cases and ruled out this possibility in the third case.
