The retropharyngeal space: route of tumour spread.

abstract：:Traditionally echocardiography has been the method of choice for the evaluation of pericardial and cardiac lesions. However, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provide a large field of view and excellent images of anatomy not available with echocardiography. In addition, CT and MRI demonstra...
