Cardiovascular magnetic resonance of cardiac tumors and masses

Figure 4 Sixty-six-year-old male patient with a history of myocardial infarction and suspected thrombotic formation at echocardiographic transthoracic examination. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance shows a hypointense intraventricular “mass” at the left ventricular apex (orange arrow) in the early gadolinium enhancement (A) and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) (B) sequences near the infarcted wall (i.e. with transmural LGE involvement). The patient underwent 3 mo of anticoagulant therapy with disappearance of the thrombus in the follow-up examination.
