What does this MRI image portray?

12 year old female presents with stomach pain, extreme bloating, nausea, and trouble eating. Was diagnosed with median actuate ligament syndrome a year earlier and has a ligament release on celiac artery. This is an image of the aorta with the celiac and SMA artery coming off. Do you notice anything off? What’s you’re diagnosis?

If you can notice on this image, the SMA artery is very narrowed. The angle is at a 10 when the normal is around 20. This resulted in SMA syndrome, surgery was needed to unblock the duodenum that passed through the artery.
