Pentavalent technetium-99m labeled dimercaptosuccinic acid (99mTc(V)-
DMSA
) scanning was performed on a 71-year-old woman with histologically confirmed primary amyloidosis. Definite uptake of the tracer was noted in the thyroid, liver, spleen, and kidney as well as in the heart. Three months later, she died of

DMSA
