Does ECG-gated MR imaging provide diagnostic information that affects clinical management in patients with suspected cardiac masses?
MR imaging provides a global view of cardiac anatomy and yields crucial diagnostic information that directly impacts the clinical management and surgical planning for patients with suspected cardiac masses.
