Overview

Echocardiography can help diagnose metastatic disease of the heart. Echocardiographic findings of liposarcoma can include thickening of the interatrial septum, pericardial echo-free space, and independent cardiac mass. Findings of liposarcoma on ultrasound include centrally hyperechoic and peripherally hypoechoic lesion and flow signals.

Echocardiography/Ultrasound

Echocardiography

Echocardiography can help diagnose metastatic disease of the heart.
Echocardiographic findings of liposarcoma can include:

Thickening of the interatrial septum^[1]
Pericardial echo-free space (indicating fat tissue mass)^[2]
Independent cardiac mass^[3]^[4]^[5]

Ultrasound

Findings of liposarcoma on ultrasound include:

Centrally hyperechoic and peripherally hypoechoic lesion^[6]
