A member asked:
Would a cardiac mri also be able to visualise any abnormalities in the upper chest area, such as lymphoma???
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: but since it is specifically tailored for the purpose of looking at the heart, it may not be optimal for evaluating other structures in and around the chest.
