Sarcoidosis Diagnosed by Myocardial Perfusion

A 38-year-old woman presented with syncope and palpitations. A myocardial perfusion study demonstrated multifocal, distinct defects not correlating with any specific coronary distribution, which is characteristic of cardiac sarcoidosis. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging subsequently confirmed syste...

description A 38-year-old woman presented with syncope and palpitations. A myocardial perfusion study demonstrated multifocal, distinct defects not correlating with any specific coronary distribution, which is characteristic of cardiac sarcoidosis. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging subsequently confirmed systemic sarcoidosis with cardiac involvement. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.)
