Fig. 3From: Prognostic utility of differential tissue characterization of cardiac neoplasm and thrombus via late gadolinium enhancement cardiovascular magnetic resonance among patients with advanced systemic cancerQuantitative Tissue Properties of Cardiac Neoplasm and Thrombus. a SNR (left) and CNR (right) compared between CNEO and CTHR (data shown as overall distribution [line bars] together with 25–75% distribution [box], and median [central line]). Note that SNR and CNR were generally higher for CNEO, consistent with contrast-enhancement secondary to vascular supply. b SNR and CNR comparisons inclusive of CNEO subtypes (diffuse and heterogeneous enhancement). Increased CNR within heterogeneously enhancing lesions (p < 0.001 vs. other types) consistent with interspersed regions with and without adequate vascular supplyBack to article page
