68-year-old woman with TC. Cardiac MIBI and BMIPP SPECT images show accumulation defects in the distal anterolateral to apical wall (a, b). Due to the unclear alignment of accumulation defects with coronary artery territories, SPECT-only imaging could not differentiate between TC and ACS. SPECT/CT fused images revealed that the accumulation defect extended through distal LAD and first diagonal branch territories, confirming TC (c, d)
