Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging of (A) axial localizer view and interposition of lung tissue between the main pulmonary artery and aorta (blue star), and (B) between the diaphragm and inferior left ventricle wall on coronal T2 weighted sequence. (C) HASTE (half fourier single-shot turbo spin-echo) sequence shows leftward position of the apex and loss of direct visualization of the left-sided pericardium as well as on the (D) subcostal transthoracic echocardiogram view. Ao: aorta; PA: pulmonary artery
