Abstract: | We report the case of a primary left atrial angiosarcoma followed by MRI over a period of 1 year. The tumor was lobulated, with an initial central hyperintensity on T1-weighted images which disappeared after radiotherapy. Compared with other imaging modalities, MRI offered the most accurate information about the location, extent, and outcome under treatment. |
