Overview
MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of a hiatus hernia. Findings on MRI suggestive of a hiatus hernia include contiguous high-signal lesion extending from retroperitoneum into the thorax.
MRI
- MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of a hiatus hernia. Findings on MRI suggestive of a hiatus hernia include:[1][2][3]
- Contiguous vessels extending from the abdominal part into the thoracic part of a fatty tumor causing paraesophageal omental herniation.
- Contiguous high-signal lesion extending from retroperitoneum into the thorax.
- Gastroesophageal junction was proximal to the diaphragmatic hiatus, the length of the cardiac mucosa was elongated.
