Fifteen patients with thoracic aortic aneurysms had magnetic resonance images (MRI) and at least one additional diagnostic image study: thoracic aortography, computed tomography (CT), or two-dimensional echocardiography. Twenty aneurysms were demonstrated by MRI, 19 by the other studies. One small saccular aneurysm was missed by CT. There was complete agreement between MRI and other studies regarding aneurysm morphology, and good correlation in diameter measurements of the aneurysms and at multiple additional aortic levels.
