title: [Tl-201 perfusion scintigraphy of the myocardium in patients with anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary trunk (clinico-anatomical comparisons)].
abstract: The clinical significance of 201Tl myocardial perfusion scintigraphy was studied in 7 patients with abnormal branch of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary trunk and in 1 patient with that of the anterior interventricular artery from the pulmonary trunk. Radiological criteria for the defect were established on the basis of comparative analysis of the data of myocardial scintigraphy with those of electrocardiographic, coronary angiography and anatomic examinations. It was shown that it was feasible to make a differential diagnosis between abnormal left coronary artery branch and dilated cardiomyopathy and that the technique was of value for comparative assessment of the efficacy of various types of surgical treatment for abnormal left coronary artery ramus from the pulmonary trunk.
