Title: Perineural optic nerve enhancement on magnetic resonance imaging in giant cell arteritis. Author: Liu KC, Chesnutt DA. Journal: J Neuroophthalmol; 2013 Sep; 33(3):279-81. PubMed ID: 23845995. Abstract: Giant cell arteritis (GCA) may cause visually devastating optic neuropathy. In atypical cases, diagnosis of optic neuropathy can be delayed. We present 2 such atypical cases and demonstrate that contrast-enhanced orbital magnetic resonance imaging may be a valuable tool in patient evaluation and aid in the diagnosis of GCA.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
