Intracardiac Extension of Lung Carcinoma Presenting as an Atrial Myxoma: A Case Report
ABSTRACT Left atrial (LA) mass is most commonly presumed to be a cardiac myxoma, as it is approximately 75% of primary cardiac tumors, with a strong predilection for the LA. In rare instances, primary lung carcinoma may extend to the LA, creating an intracardiac mass indistinguishable from a myxoma on initial echocardiographic assessment.

Abstract Background Respiratory‐correlated four‐dimensional (4D) magnetic resonance imaging (4D‐MRI) is useful to estimate breathing induced motion for MRI‐guided radiotherapy. Based on 4D‐MR image sets, a three‐dimensional mid‐position (MidP) MRI can be generated using deformable image registration (DIR) for radiotherapy planning. However, the desired
