Imaging of the Pericardium

Journal of Thoracic Imaging, 2001
Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are modalities well suited for imaging of the pericardium and pericardial disease. Both offer excellent resolution with a wide field of view. Both have advantages and disadvantages when compared with each other and with echocardiography.

Tuberculoma of the Pericardium

The British Journal of Radiology, 1976
