摘要：

The use of and transoesophageal echocardiography has been well described in the diagnosis of intracardiac metastases. We present a case of a right atrial mass in a patient with metastatic melanoma which was unexpectedly detected by dynamic enhanced spiral CT. The diagnosis was subsequently confirmed by MRI. It is likely that the increasingly widespread use of spiral CT will result in a greater detection rate of intracardiac tumours.
