Abstract:
The results of computer tomogram images analysis of 32 patients (32 orbits) with soft tissue orbital tumors are presented. 22 patients appeared to have cavernous hemangioma, 10--optic nerve meningioma. The technique of three dimensional reconstruction of orbital soft tissue is described and its diagnostic value in patients with cavernous hemangioma and optic nerve meningioma is analyzed. The density of lesions and its variability were studied. Indications for two and three dimensional imaging were proposed to differentiate these tumors.

DefinitionComputed Tomography (CT) of the genitourinary (GU) tract is a non-invasive imaging modality that utilizes X-rays and computer processing to generate detailed cross-sectional images of the urinary system, encompassing the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and adjacent structures such as the adrenal glands.PurposeCT scans of the GU tract serve several diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, including:Diagnosis of Urinary Tract Diseases: Detects kidney stones, tumors, cysts, and congenital...
01:10Computed Tomography
Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...
