A patient with acute inferior infarct is described who showed increased 201Tl uptake in the anterior chest wall following cardioversion which mimicked increased lung uptake of the tracer. The site of accumulation of 201Tl corresponded to that of 99mTc-pyrophosphate (PYP) and the right sided catheterization revealed almost normal hemodynamic data.
