The researchers are doing this study to see how well cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) scans can be used to examine the properties of central venous catheter-associated right atrial clot (RA clot). This could help doctors decide on the best treatment options.

Cardiac MRI (CMR) for Central venous catheter-associated right atrial thrombus (RATHR) patients will be performed at baseline within 1 month of suspected RATHR diagnosis on echo/chest CT, and a follow up (3 months)

RECRUITINGassociation between Central venous catheter-associated right atrial thrombus (RATHR) with Cardiac MRI (CMR) tissue
Quantitative tissue characterization of RATHR will be employed to measure RATHR organization based on contrast infiltration, T1 variability altered T2\*10 and susceptibility. These will be used to determine chronicity of thrombi as a predictor of therapeutic response to anticoagulation. Analyses will also include assessment of RATHR size, and geometry (border irregularity) at baseline and at 3-month follow up CMR using established methods to assess for the degree of resolution of RATHR.
Time frame: up to 3 months
