Echocardiography

• 
  Left Atrial Myxoma (M Mode echo)
• 
  Transthoracic echocardiogram (short axis, parasternal view) through the level of the atria shows a round, echogenic mass (arrowhead) within the left atrium attached to the atrial septum. The patient was a 44-year-old woman with chest pain and left atrial myxoma. AO = aorta; RA = right atrium; RV = right ventricle.
