title: [Comparison of ultrasound, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging in diagnosis of orbital disorders].
abstract: 16 cases of confirmed orbital disorders, comprising orbital tumor 11 cases, inflammation 2 cases, ophthalmic Graves' disease 2 cases and carotid-cavernous sinus fistula 1 case, were studied with ultrasound, CT, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in regard to identification and localization of the lesions. MRI excelled CT and ultrasound in histologic contrast resolution and spatial localization. The technique of MRI was particularly discussed.
