  • Title: [Magnetic resonance imaging in 80 cases of orbital tumors].
    Author: Song GX, Tian WF, Xiao LH.
    Journal: Zhonghua Yan Ke Za Zhi; 1994 Nov; 30(6):423-6. PubMed ID: 7774457.
    Abstract:
    Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a new medical imaging technique which has been used in evaluating ocular and orbital diseases in recent years. Owing to the high resolution of soft tissues and lesions, it is superior to ultrasound and computed tomography in the localization and characterization of an orbital tumor in diagnosis. In this paper, we analysed 80 cases of MR images of orbital tumors by which all the lesions were detected. Benign or malignant disorders were recognized in 59 cases and complete tumors with accurate localization were shown in 79 cases. The principles of MRI, signal intensity of various tumors and the indications of MRI were discussed.
