False positive technetium-99m pyrophosphate scintigraphy in a patient with cardiac amyloidosis light chain: Case report
INTRODUCTION: Patients with cardiac amyloidosis light chain (AL) present with negative Tc-99m pyrophosphate (PYP) scintigraphy (absent or mild heart uptake). On the contrary, patients with cardiac amyloidosis transthyretin (ATTR) present with positive Tc-99m PYP scanning (intensive heart uptake). We...
