Abstract
- Echocardiography, thoracic computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging are three valuable imaging techniques for the management and pathophysiological understanding of cardiac tamponade and constrictive pericarditis. However, these techniques should not be used independently from clinical findings. In this article we describe the findings that can be obtained with these imaging techniques, emphasizing how they should be integrated in the clinical context of the patient. Only the proper use of these imaging techniques can optimize the management of patients with pericardial disease.
