    Area of Science:

    • Neuroradiology
    • Medical Imaging
    • Ophthalmology

    Background:

    • Traditional X-ray methods have limitations in diagnosing complex orbital pathologies.
    • Space-occupying lesions in the retrobulbar orbit require advanced imaging for accurate diagnosis.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of the computer-aided tomography system (EMI-Scan) in diagnosing retrobulbar orbit diseases.
    • To describe the physicotechnical basis, examination technique, and diagnostic capabilities of EMI-Scan for orbital imaging.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized the EMI-Scan, a novel X-ray based computer-aided tomography system.
    • Presented clinical cases of various space-occupying retrobulbar orbit processes.
    • Detailed the examination protocol and indications for computer tomography in orbital diagnostics.

    Main Results:

    • Demonstrated the suitability of EMI-Scan for diagnosing a range of retrobulbar orbit diseases.
    • Illustrated the diagnostic potential of this new X-ray method through presented cases.
    • Provided a comprehensive overview of the system's technical aspects and clinical applications.

    Conclusions:

    • Computer-aided tomography (EMI-Scan) is a valuable tool for neuroradiological diagnosis of orbital diseases.
    • The EMI-Scan system offers significant advantages in visualizing and diagnosing space-occupying retrobulbar lesions.
    • This advanced X-ray method expands diagnostic possibilities in orbital imaging.
