Definitive diagnosis of pulmonary sequestration requires angiographic visualization of the anomalous feeding and draining vessels.

Diagnosis of pulmonary seques tration was established with magnetic resonance (MR) angiography, which demonstrated abnormal feeding arteries to the sequestrum from the thoracic aorta with draining pulmonary veins.
