  • Primary cardiac lymphoma: CT and MR findings.

    abstract::Primary cardiac lymphomas, defined as those involving only the heart and pericardium, are extremely rare tumors. These tumors are commonly fatal and until recently were rarely diagnosed antemortem. We describe the CT and MR findings in a case of primary lymphoma of the heart currently responding to chemotherapy. ...
