  • Title: Myopericarditis in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome diagnosed by gallium scintigraphy.
    Author: Cregler LL, Sosa I, Ducey S, Abbey L.
    Journal: J Natl Med Assoc; 1990 Jul; 82(7):511-3. PubMed ID: 2398508.
    Abstract:
    Myocarditis is among the cardiac complications of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome and, yet, is often not discovered until autopsy. Gallium scintigraphy has been employed in diagnosing this entity, but few data are available about its diagnostic accuracy and value. Here, the authors report two cases of myopericarditis as diagnosed by gallium scan.
