[Right aortic arch with a retroesophageal segment: a nuclear magnetic resonance study].
The first two cases of retroesophageal right aortic arch studied by magnetic resonance imaging are reported. Both previously underwent angiography. The importance of MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) in the diagnostic procedure is discussed and its practice as alternative to angiography is suggested.
