Abstract
Technetium-99m sestamibi myocardial perfusion imaging is commonly employed non-invasive study for evaluation of coronary artery disease; however, incidental extracardiac scintigraphic findings observed may provide additional diagnostic information. The authors present the unusual scintigraphic findings in a case of decompensated liver disease with right hepatic hydrothorax, being planned for orthotopic liver transplant.
