1. To review the location of the secondary cardiac masses and its spreading routes . 2. To correlate the findings in different imaging techniques such as multidetector computed tomography (MDCT), magnetic resonance  (MR) and 2- [fluorine18] fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose  possitron emission tomography / computed tomography (FDG PET/CT). 3. To emphasize the usefulness of FDG PET/CT in the diagnosis of intracavitary metastases and the assesment of extranodal lymphoma.
