1. imaging and gated cardiac blood pool however, metabolic studies were performed during scans in patients with ischemic and idiopathic congestive catheterisation (Table 2) and in none did myocardial cardiomyopathy. Circulation 1977; 55: 753-60. lactate extraction fall below 10% even on pacing. An ischaemic aetiology for the obvious perfusion abnormalities which they displayed on Ti scanning is thus unlikely. Secondly, foci of interstitial or replacement fibrosis are known to occur"4 in dilated cardiomyopathy and their presence was postulated by Bulkley et al.3 as the possible cause of defects found in;Bulkley, B.H.; Hutchins, G.M.; Bailey, I.; Strauss, H.W.,Pitt B.
