OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this report is to describe the normal MR anatomy of the thoracic outlet and its modification after postural maneuvers using an anatomic—MR imaging correlation.

CONCLUSION. MR imaging appears to be a useful technique to study the thoracic outlet and its contents because of its excellent soft-tissue depiction and its multiplanar capabilities. T1-weighted images obtained in the sagittal plane clearly depicted the different compartments of the cervicothoracic—brachial junction. Hyperabduction maneuvers may have potential applications in the assessment of the thoracic outlet syndrome by showing the location of compression.
