Remarks

Ensure that the point argument is relative to the map instance. You can easily do this by using the method:

            myElement.TransformToVisual(myMap).Transform(myPoint);

Where myElement is the element the screen coordinates are relative to. You can use "System.Windows.Application.Current.RootVisual" if you want to use coordinates relative to the entire control.
