OBJECTIVE.这篇文章的目的是讨论最佳的成像策略的评价心脏肿块。超声心动图、心脏MRI、门控心脏CT和核成像的优点和缺点将被讨论，并提出具体的技术。多模态成像在心脏肿块的诊断和手术计划中起着关键作用。临床特征，如患者的年龄，位置和肿块的影像学特征将决定可能的鉴别诊断。
OBJECTIVE. The objective of this article is to discuss optimal imaging strategies for the evaluation of cardiac masses. The advantages and disadvantages of echocardiography, cardiac MRI, gated cardiac CT, and nuclear imaging will be discussed and specific techniques presented.CONCLUSION. Multimodality imaging plays a pivotal role in the diagnosis and surgical planning of cardiac masses. Clinical features, such as patient age, location, and imaging characteristics of the mass will determine the likely differential diagnosis.
