Planar 99mTc-PYP imaging limited by overlying rib uptake. When evaluating the heart-to-contralateral lung uptake ratio (H/CL), care must be taken to avoid increase the bone activity overlying the myocardial region. In this chest planar 99mTc-PYP image, focally increased radiotracer uptake in the left chest is due to a recent rib fracture.
