An atrial septal mass was identified by echocardiogram in a patient with multiple subcutaneous lipomas. In order to differentiate the benign condition of lipomatous hypertrophy from myxoma, thrombus and other tumors, nuclear magnetic resonance and computed tomographic imaging were performed. Both techniques identified the adipose nature of the tissue noninvasively, consistent with the diagnosis of lipomatous hypertrophy. Pathologically demonstrated lipomatous hypertrophy in a postmortem heart was similarly characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance imaging.
在一名患有多发性皮下脂肪瘤的患者中，经超声心动图检查发现了房间隔肿块。为了将脂肪瘤样肥大的良性情况与黏液瘤、血栓及其他肿瘤区分开来，进行了核磁共振和计算机断层扫描成像。这两种技术均无创地确定了该组织的脂肪性质，与脂肪瘤样肥大的诊断相符。尸检心脏中病理证实的脂肪瘤样肥大在核磁共振成像中也有类似表现。
