After viewing the planar study, a SPECT-CT was performed. This representative slice in axial, sagittal, and coronal plains (top row = SPECT, middle row = CT, bottom row = merged) confirms the uptake as cardiac and not blood pool. Echocardiogram at the time was normal. The patient developed echo and clinical features of cardiac ATTR amyloid approximately two years later.
