Title: Right atrial and ventricular masses of unknown origin. Author: Wertman BM, Goland S, Davidson RM, Siegel RJ. Journal: J Am Soc Echocardiogr; 2008 Jun; 21(6):776.e5-7. PubMed ID: 17931831.

Three-dimensional echocardiography was useful in further characterizing the morphology and extent of the lesions.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
