Traditional imaging methods, such as transthoracic echocardiography and transesophageal echocardiography, are crucial for initial assessments owing to their accessibility, but they have a major limitation represented by inter-operator variability. Therefore, cardiac computed tomography (CT) has become an indispensable adjunct, providing detailed anatomical information and tissue characterization. This review examines the prevalence, categorization and diagnostic benefits of cardiac CT in the evaluation of cardiac masses. The high-resolution imaging and multiplanar features of cardiac CT allow in-depth assessment of the structure, location and enhancement patterns of masses, helping to distinguish benign from malignant masses and guide clinical decision-making. Specific imaging features of benign and malignant tumors, as well as non-neoplastic masses, are discussed, highlighting the role of CT in overall cardiac assessment. This article highlights the importance of CT in surgical preparation, risk assessment and ongoing monitoring, and highlights its effect on improving patients' outcomes.

Despite its efficacy, linezolid can cause serotonin syndrome, a potentially fatal condition associated with excessive serotonin activity in the brain. This narrative review examined the pharmacological mechanisms of this interaction, particularly linezolid's mild monoamine oxidase-inhibitory activity, which can trigger serotonin syndrome in combination with serotonergic drugs. Serotonin syndrome causes cognitive, autonomic, and somatic symptoms ranging from mild (tremors, diarrhea) to severe (hyperthermia, seizures, multiorgan failure). The Hunter Serotonin Toxicity Criteria have superior sensitivity and specificity over the Sternbach Criteria for diagnosis. Clinical evidence indicates that although the incidence of linezolid-induced serotonin syndrome is low, the risk justifies careful monitoring and risk assessment. This review emphasizes enhanced pharmacovigilance and standardized reporting criteria to better capture and analyze data on linezolid-induced serotonin syndrome. Assessments of the pharmacological mechanisms, large-scale clinical trials, and cohort studies are essential to elucidate risk factors and outcomes. Developing comprehensive clinical guidelines and education programs for healthcare providers is crucial to improve linezolid's safety profile.
