Magnetic resonance imaging of Morgagni hernia

Gastrointest Radiol. 1987;12(4):296-8. doi: 10.1007/BF01885165.

Abstract

A case of a Morgagni hernia is demonstrated by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The correct diagnosis was facilitated by the ability to image directly the anteromedial diaphragmatic defect in the coronal and sagittal planes. The findings from MRI, computed tomography, and radiographic studies are correlated.
