Computed tomography of the visual pathways.

C M Citrin, M G Alper

    Computerized Tomography
    |January 1, 1979
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Computed tomography (CT) scans visualize the orbits, but visual pathway defects often stem from issues behind the optic canal. This study correlates brain CT scans with visual field changes, aiding in diagnosing visual pathway abnormalities.

    Area of Science:

    • Neuroimaging
    • Ophthalmology
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • The orbits are well-visualized by computed tomography (CT), but the primary visual apparatus extends beyond this region.
    • Pathologic conditions affecting the visual pathways often manifest as visual field defects.

    Observation:

    • This article focuses on the normal anatomy of the visual pathways within the brain using CT scanning.
    • It demonstrates how various pathological conditions correlate with specific visual field defects.

    Findings:

    • CT scanning provides crucial insights into the anatomical structures of the visual pathways.
    • Abnormalities detected via CT can be directly correlated with observed visual field deficits.

    Implications:

    Related Experiment Videos

  • This correlation aids in the diagnosis and localization of visual pathway disorders.
  • CT imaging is a valuable tool for understanding the neuroanatomical basis of visual field loss.
