[Computer tomography diagnosis of cardiac and pericardial space-occupying lesions].
Cardial and paracardial space occupations need a rapid, possibly non-invasive diagnosis. The echocardiography and the computer tomography are practically available. At the instance of 17 intracardial space occupations (4 solid tumours and 13 thrombi), which were found in a total number of 600 cardio-computer-tomographies, and several selected peri- und paracardial space occupations the high diagnostic significance of the computer tomography is demonstrated. With the computer tomography a standardized method independent of the investigator is available which in qualitative respect appears of the same value as to echocardiography in the diagnostics of the intracardial space occupations and in the peri- and paracardial space occupations the non-invasive method is the method of choice.
