Myocardial Perfusion Imaging with 201Tl [PDF]
Journal of Nuclear Medicine Technology, 2010 The object of this review is to provide information about (201)Tl-thallous chloride in radionuclide myocardial perfusion imaging. This technique has experienced a recent resurgence because of the shortage of (99m)Tc. After reading this article, the technologist will be able to describe the properties and uptake mechanism of (201)Tl, the procedure for ...
