چکیده
A utilidade da angioTC cardíaca na avaliação da anatomia coronária está amplamente aceite1. No entanto, esta técnica de imagem permite a visualização, com cada vezmelhor definição, das outras estruturas cardíacas. Assim, é relativamente frequente encontrarem-se imagens que constituem achados. Os autores apresentam 3 casos clínicos de achados intracardíacos, aquando da realização de uma angioTC cardíaca.

BACKGROUND This is the first study that has examined non-cardiac incidental findings in research cardiac computed tomography (CT) of hemodialysis patients and their relationship with patient characteristics. METHODS We performed a cross-sectional analysis in the Predictors of Arrhythmic and Cardiovascular Events in End-Stage Renal Disease (PACE) study, a prospective cohort study on incident h...
متن کاملDiagnostic and Prognostic Value of Cardiac Biomarkers in Children with Kawasaki Disease: A State-of-the-Art Review
Kawasaki disease (KD) is characterized as the leading cause of acquired cardiac disease in children. Accurate and timely diagnosis of KD is of high importance for preventing its cardiac complications. However, diagnosis merely based on clinical findings has a number of challenges and, limitations.

متن کامل[18F]FDG PET/CT in a case of recurrent primary cardiac osteosarcoma
Primary cardiac osteosarcoma is a very rare malignancy with a high incidence of local recurrence and systemic metastasis, contributing to the poor prognosis. Radiological modalities are commonly used for the evaluation of cardiac masses. 2-[18F]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose ([18F]FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography is a valuable whole-body imaging modality in ...
متن کاملThe incidental lung lesion: effect of cardiac stress on the MIBI uptake in the lung mass
A discrete MIBI avid lung lesion was found in cinematic views of myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) of a 59 year-old woman. Interestingly, the abnormal uptake in the lung was detectable only in the rest phase images and not in the images acquired in the stress phase. MPI was performed for pre-operation cardiac risk assessment before correction surgery for spinal canal stenosis. She had no...
متن کاملThe Prevalence of Incidental Findings at Cardiac MRI
UNLABELLED OBJECT OR PURPOSE OF STUDY: As the field of view of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) includes the thorax and upper abdomen, it is not surprising that these studies can reveal incidental extra-cardiac abnormalities. The purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence of these incidental findings. MATERIALS, METHODS AND PROCEDURES 132 volunteer participants with a mean a...
