Fig. 1A —66-year-old asymptomatic man with history of bladder cancer and incidentally discovered cardiac mass. (See also Figure S1, cine loops, in supplemental data online.) Four-chamber b-SSFP (balanced steady-state free precession) (bright blood) image shows pedunculated right atrial mass.

Fig. 1B —66-year-old asymptomatic man with history of bladder cancer and incidentally discovered cardiac mass. (See also Figure S1, cine loops, in supplemental data online.) T1-weighted (B) and T2-weighted (C) black blood images show mass to be homogeneous and intermediate in signal intensity.

Fig. 1C —66-year-old asymptomatic man with history of bladder cancer and incidentally discovered cardiac mass. (See also Figure S1, cine loops, in supplemental data online.) T1-weighted (B) and T2-weighted (C) black blood images show mass to be homogeneous and intermediate in signal intensity.

Fig. 1D —66-year-old asymptomatic man with history of bladder cancer and incidentally discovered cardiac mass. (See also Figure S1, cine loops, in supplemental data online.) T1-weighted fat-suppressed image shows lack of signal suppression in mass.

Fig. 1E —66-year-old asymptomatic man with history of bladder cancer and incidentally discovered cardiac mass. (See also Figure S1, cine loops, in supplemental data online.) Contrast-enhanced first-pass perfusion images in right (E) and left (F) sides of heart show no enhancement of mass.

Fig. 1F —66-year-old asymptomatic man with history of bladder cancer and incidentally discovered cardiac mass. (See also Figure S1, cine loops, in supplemental data online.) Contrast-enhanced first-pass perfusion images in right (E) and left (F) sides of heart show no enhancement of mass.

Fig. 1G —66-year-old asymptomatic man with history of bladder cancer and incidentally discovered cardiac mass. (See also Figure S1, cine loops, in supplemental data online.) On T1-weighted delayed contrast-enhanced image, mass does not exhibit enhancement.
