Overview
There are no other imaging findings associated with [disease name].
OR
[Imaging modality] may be helpful in the diagnosis of [disease name]. Findings on an [imaging modality] suggestive of/diagnostic of [disease name] include [finding 1], [finding 2], and [finding 3].
Other Imaging Findings
- Whole-body CT or MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of non-bacterial thrombotic endocarditis. It may show evidence of systemic embolism in patients with undetermined NBTE.
- There is limited data to support the use of positron emission tomography (PET) in the diagnosis of NBTE.
- So far only one published case report supports the use of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) in the diagnosis of NBTE[1].
