Cyclic imports

Hi folks. I'm working on a large codebase that has at least one cyclic import. In case I end up needing to eliminate the cyclic imports, is there any sort of tool that will generate an import graph and output Just the cycles? I tried pyreverse, but it produced too big a graph to be very useful;
