Breast cancer detection with Tc-99m tetrofosmin.
Myocardial SPECT imaging was performed with Tc-99m tetrofosmin. Intense focal uptake at the level of the left breast was observed. At mammography a breast carcinoma was suspected, which was confirmed after surgery. This may be the first report of neoplastic mammary uptake of Tc-99m tetrofosmin.
