The table below summarizes the findings that differentiate Cardiac Myxoma from other conditions that cause Emboli and hemorrhage:
Imaging Technique | Features | Sensitivity | Specificity | Limitations |
---|---|---|---|---|
Echocardiogram | B | C | D | E |
MRI | Cardiac myxomas appear spherical or ovoid with lobular contours, irregular in shape. MRI with gadolinium administration, demonstrates uniform heterogeneous enhancement. | C | D | E |
CT | Intracardiac heterogeneously low attenuating mass. The attenuation is usally lower than that of myocardium, coarse dystrophic calcification is common. | C | D | E |
Angiography | B | C | D | E |
Chest x-ray | Results can be normal. Otherwise, common findings include cardiomegaly, left atrial enlargement, vascular redistribution, prominent pulmonary trunk, and intracardiac tumoral calcification(rare). | C | D | E |
