Cardiac Magnetic Resonance for Evaluating Catheter Related FDG Avidity

Figure 3

Cardiac magnetic resonance evaluation. (a) Axial SSFP image shows a hypointense structure conforming to the medial lower SVC wall. (b) Axial T2 SPAIR MR image shows isointense T2 signal within the structure. (c) Axial T1 postcontrast image demonstrates a well-defined intravascular filling defect along the SVC wall. (d) Late gadolinium enhancement phase sensitive inversion recovery image demonstrates hypoenhancement of the intravascular structure. Findings are compatible with bland thrombus.
