  • Title: Myocardial macroaggregate uptake on successive lung perfusion scans.
    Author: Cinotti L, Meignan M, Legendre T, Vernant P.
    Journal: Eur J Nucl Med; 1983; 8(7):325-7. PubMed ID: 6224695.
    Abstract:
    In a patient with an Eisenmenger syndrome and multiple intraventricular communications, myocardial uptake of macroaggregated albumin appeared during a perfusion lung scan. This pattern can be explained by an increase of arterial pulmonary hypertension heightening the proportion of the right-to-left shunt.
