“…Several studies have assessed cardiovascular invasion of an intrathoracic mass using cine MRI. 11,20 However, the minimal motion of cardiovascular structures such as the distal aortic arch, descending thoracic aorta, superior vena cava, and pulmonary veins increases the risk of a false-positive or false-negative diagnosis of cardiovascular invasion of a thoracic mass if the diagnosis depends on the absence of sliding motion on cine MRI. In this respect, cine MRI is limited in its ability to predict aortic invasion by lung cancer.…”
