50-year-old female with a history of chest pressure diagnosed with papillary fibroelastoma. (a) Gray-scale TTE and (b-e) MR imaging of the heart: (a) TTE shows a small mobile mass attached to a cardiac valve with “shimmer” artifact (white arrow) compatible with a papillary fibroelastoma, (c) SSFP cine shows the mass was attached to the mitral valve by a short stalk and mobile with turbulent blood flow, (c) On SSFP the mass was hypointense and (d) post contrast T1-weighted image shows the mass was also hypointense (black arrow) and (e) T2-weighted imaging reveals the mass is inconspicuous.
