Small pulmonary arteriovenous fistulae revealed by scintigraphy during selective injection of 99Tc(m)-macroaggregated albumin.
We report a case of small pulmonary arteriovenous fistulae precisely diagnosed by a combination of selective pulmonary arteriography and scintigraphy during (99)Tc(m)-macroaggregated albumin injection via the peripheral pulmonary artery.
