Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the Orbit

چکیده
The initial impact of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) was in neuroradiology, where its detection of pathology and demonstration of normal anatomy presented clear advantages over the other available techniques. Its use in ophthalmology is more recent and its advantages over Computed Tomography (CT) were initially limited by the relatively low resolution of early machines. With improvements in hardware and software it has become increasingly obvious that MRI has much to offer in the investigation of orbital pathology. We wish to demonstrate, using two cases, the benefits available from orbital MRI.
