title: [Imaging technics in the evaluation of malformations, traumatic and expansive disorders of the orbital region].
abstract: In this paper the authors evaluate the usefulness of the new radiological techniques in the study of the orbital region. They describe the role of modern computerized imaging in the planning of their correction of malformative and traumatic diseases of the orbit. Furthermore, the authors evaluate the usefulness of US, CT, and MR imaging in the differential diagnosis of growing masses of the orbit.
