Abstract
We report a case of pseudocoarctation of the thoracic aorta diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging. Morphological spin-echo findings and ci ne-MRI performed by gradient-echo multiphase images are reported. No o ther more invasive examinations were needed to establish the diagnosis of pseudocoarctation and to differentiate from other aortic abnormali ties. (C) 1996 Elsevier Science Ltd.
