One hundred and six patients with angina pectoris who underwent routine coronary angiography and left ventriculography were given intracoronary injection of thallium 201. The myocardial images had excellent resolution because of lack of interference from the background activity. The myocardial images and the left ventriculograms showed 94% correlation. Correlation between scans and EKG was lower. There was no correlation between the degree of coronary artery stenosis and 201Tl scan. Currently, the intracoronary injection of 201Tl at rest does not yield additional information to coronary angiography and left ventriculography.
