Abstract

A 56-year-old female with cardiac risk factors underwent a preoperative myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) stress test. The MPI stress test resulted in a negative study without evidence for ischemia or scarring and left ventricular function was normal as shown in figure 1. However, on the raw cine image there was an unusual cystic-appearing lesion in the left upper quadrant as shown in figure 2A-C.
