Expanding utility of cardiac computed tomography in infective endocarditis: A contemporary review

Figure 10  Embolic phenomena of infective endocarditis. A: It demonstrates multiple pulmonary septic emboli, including cavitary lesions (star) from tricuspid valve endocarditis. Cardiac computed tomography is also incremental in demonstrating embolic phenomena which can have implications for surgical urgency and overall prognosis; B: It demonstrates a splenic infarct (arrow) from mitral valve endocarditis).
