title: Scintigraphic diagnosis of right ventricular ischemia.
abstract: We present a patient with exercise induced right ventricular ischemia demonstrated on stress TI-201 myocardial scintiscan. The patient underwent cardiac catheterization, and subtotal occlusion was found at the proximal right coronary artery. Repeat stress TI-201 scan became normal following the successful percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty.
