  • Title: High-resolution microscopy coil MR-Eye.
    Author: Georgouli T, James T, Tanner S, Shelley D, Nelson M, Chang B, Backhouse O, McGonagle D.
    Journal: Eye (Lond); 2008 Aug; 22(8):994-6. PubMed ID: 17332767.
    Abstract:
    The eye is involved in several pathologies where precise identification of the underlying condition is essential for the optimal patient care. This preliminary report presents the potential of high-resolution microscopy coil magnetic resonance imaging (HR-MRI) to undertake this task being actively used in the clinical setting. We used a commercially available MRI scanner and a microscopy surface coil. Exquisite anatomic detail of the eye and orbit with depiction of previously unobserved structures and clear demonstration of the underlying pathology was achieved. This report supports the idea that orbital imaging can be revolutionized with the introduction of HR-MRI with broad clinical implications.
