    Author: Streifler J, Pitlik S, Dux S, Perry G, Hellman C, Greenwald M, Rosenfeld JB.
    Journal: Postgrad Med J; 1984 Apr; 60(702):298-300. PubMed ID: 6728756.
    Abstract:
    Undiagnosed myocardial infarction of the right ventricle presented as Dressler's syndrome. Radioisotopic diagnostic procedures including first-pass and multigated acquisition nuclear angiography ( MUGA ) and thallium-201 perfusion studies enabled a retroactive diagnosis of myocardial infarction, showed it to be in the right ventricle, and clarified the aetiology of the unexplained fever and pleuropericarditis.
