A radionuclide Tc-99m hexamethylpropyleneamine oxime white blood cell scan with SPECT/CT was requested for the investigation of pyrexia and bacteraemia in a 69-year-old gentleman who was status postcoronary angiography and stenting. Abnormal radiotracer activity in the region of the left anterior descending artery was observed, which on subsequent histopathology found to be a pseudoaneurysm and coronary abscess. |
