Abstract
Diagnostic evaluation of chest pain using myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) is a common method employed to look for
coronary artery disease (CAD). The isotopes used in MPI are also useful for imaging cancer, including breast cancer. We present a
case where breast cancer was diagnosed using a quantitative method which simultaneously looks for cancer and CAD.
