[Neuroradiologic examinations in ophthalmology].
Radiology can contribute to the solution of numerous diagnostic problems encountered in ophthalmology. Malformations, trauma, tumors and pseudotumors of the orbit and adjacent cranio-facial structures often require well ordered standard and tomographic X-ray techniques. Next in line are important and nonaggressive methods such as bone scintigraphy of the head and brain and orbit scintigraphy. More recently, computer assisted axial transverse tomography has already proved of great assistance. Finally, selective angiography of the branches of the external carotid and of the ophthalmic artery and phlebography of the orbit may be necessary. These techniques are briefly and systematically reviewed.
