Cardiac masses are usually first detected at echocardiography. In their further evaluation,
cardiac magnetic resonance (MR) imaging has become a highly valuable technique. MR …

Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging is an important tool in the evaluation of cardiac
neoplasms. T1-weighted, T2-weighted, and gadolinium-enhanced sequences are used for …

Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) offers superior advantages in cardiac imaging due to
supplying a greater field of view, excellent soft-tissue imaging, and multiplanar imaging …

OBJECTIVE. This article reviews the optimal cardiac MRI sequences for and the spectrum of
imaging appearances of cardiac tumors. CONCLUSION. Recent technologic advances in …

The purpose of this study was to assess the role of MR imaging for evaluating suspected
cardiac tumors or paracardiac masses involving the heart. Sixty-one patients with clinical or …

Primary cardiac neoplasms are rare, and are more commonly benign than malignant.
However, metastases are by far the most common cardiac neoplasms. MRI allows …

Aims To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR)
imaging from a risk-stratification and therapeutic-management perspective in patients with …

Background Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) provides useful information for
characterizing cardiac masses, but there are limited data on whether CMR can accurately …

Recent developments in magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of the heart have refocused
attention on the potential of MR and continue to attract intense interest within the radiology …

OBJECTIVE. The objective of this article is to discuss optimal imaging strategies for the
