Key result
Multimodal cardiovascular imaging is an essential tool for the diagnosis and therapy of cardiac paragangliomas, as it helps determine the tumor's relation to adjacent structures.
Multimodality imaging is crucial for the diagnosis and management of cardiac paragangliomas.
May guide imaging selection in rare cardiac paragangliomas; leaves open prospective validation of protocols.
•Cardiac paragangliomas are infrequent tumors.•The most common location is in the left atrium.•Cardiovascular morbidity and mortality without treatment are high.•Different imaging techniques help determine the relation with adjacent structures.•Multimodal cardiovascular imaging is an essential tool for diagnosis and therapy.
