Fig. 1C —Example of true-positive results by 2D perfusion imaging and 3D turbo fast low-angle shot (FLASH) imaging (patient 8, Table 1). Movie 1, available online for viewing at www.ajronline.org, shows filling defect of atrial appendage body and apex in dynamic information provided by 2D perfusion imaging. LA = left atrium, LAA = left atrial appendage, LV = left ventricle, PV = pulmonary vein, Av = aortic valve. Transesophageal echocardiography image (A), 2D perfusion image (B), and 3D turboFLASH (C) show thrombus (arrows) in left atrial appendage body extending into apex.
