Overview
Cardiac MRI is regarded as the gold standard after echocardiograph for evaluating a suspected cardiac tumor due to its unique ability to provide non-invasive tissue characterization in conjunction with excellent temporal resolution and absence of exposure to ionizing radiation.
MRI
- Cardiac MRI scan may be further used to investigate the cardiac tumors after initial diagnostic testing with an echocardiograph.
- Findings on MRI suggestive of/diagnostic of different cardiac cancers include:
Tumor | MRI Finding |
---|---|
Myxoma | * Oval mobile left atrial lesion
|
Rhabdomyoma | * Multiple masses isointense to muscle tissue on T1 images
|
Cardiac Fibroma | * Solitary mass
|
Fibroelastoma | * T1 and T2 weighted images show uniform intermediate signal intensity similar to myocardium
|
Hemangioma | * Intermediate density on T1 images
|
Cardiac Lipoma | * Epicardial or intramural lesion |
Paraganglioma | * Well defined lesion arising from atrial walls or septum
|
Atrioventricular Node Tumor | * Hypointense cardiac mass on standard imaging
|
Fibrosarcoma | * Heterogenous or isointense to myocardium on T1 weighted images[1] |
Angiosarcoma | * Arterial phase enhancement[1] |
Rhabdomyosarcoma | * Intermediate-to-hypointensity compared with muscle on T1 images
