Cardiac masses diagnosis and treatment are a true challenge, although they are
infrequently encountered in clinical practice. They encompass a broad set of lesions that …

Background The purpose of this analysis is to describe the differences in cardiac magnetic
resonance characteristics between benign and malignant tumors, which would be helpful for …

Primary cardiac tumors are rare in all ages, especially in children, with a reported
prevalence range of 0.0017–0.28% in autopsy series. Due to their rarity, the diagnostic and …

The purpose of this work was to evaluate CMR T1 and T2 mapping sequences in patients
with intracardiac thrombi and masses in order to assess T1 and T2 relaxometry usefulness …

Background Cardiac tumors are rare but manifested with various clinical presentations and
often cause unexpected symptoms or sudden death. The objective is to review the clinical …

Cardiac tumours represent a rare but important issue in clinical routine in both tertiary and
non-tertiary clinical centres. Initial studies based on autopsy data placed them at an …

ASSESSMENT OF CARDIAC tumors, because it combines high contrast and spatial …

To assess the value of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) in evaluating cardiac
tumours in a tertiary cardiology centre. Between 2004 and 2014, 125 patients (pts.) from a …

It is critical to distinguish between cardiac tumors and thrombi because they require different
treatment strategies. Although accurate differentiation of these cardiac masses can be …

Objective The aim of this cross-sectional, retrospective, descriptive study was to review and
