Ultrasonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging offer complementary views of the eye and orbit. Each modality presents unique strengths for diagnosing ocular and periocular conditions.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Radiology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Ultrasonography (US), computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are key cross-sectional imaging techniques for the eye and orbit.
  • Each modality offers distinct advantages and limitations in visualizing ocular and periocular structures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the techniques and normal findings of ocular and orbital structures using US, CT, and MRI.
  • To illustrate interpretation principles and common pathological changes through clinical cases.

Main Methods:

  • Review of ultrasonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging techniques.
  • Presentation of normal anatomical findings for each imaging modality.
  • Illustrative clinical cases of common ocular and orbital diseases.

Main Results:

  • High-resolution US excels in ocular morphology but has limited periocular detail.
  • CT and MRI provide comprehensive morphologic and topographic imaging of both ocular and periocular tissues.
  • US is cost-effective, readily available, and suitable for awake patients; CT/MRI require anesthesia.

Conclusions:

  • US, CT, and MRI are complementary for evaluating eye and orbit pathologies.
  • The choice of imaging modality depends on the specific clinical question and patient factors.
  • These imaging techniques are essential for accurate diagnosis and management of ocular and orbital conditions.
