title: [CT scanning of the orbita (author's transl)].
abstract: Basing on selected cases, the efficiency spectrum of modern CT apparatus in the diagnosis of orbital disease is described. Besides exact localisation of retrobulbar space-occupying growths, CT scanning enables good identification of pathological processes at the bulbus and those of parabulbar location, at the lacrimal gland, the optic nerve and the ocular muscles. Extraorbital changes are clearly identifiable.
