Imaging of sella and parasellar disease.
The sella and parasellar region may be affected by a variety of disease states. Diseases of this region often result in visual disturbances because of the proximity of the sella to the optic pathways and cranial nerves. Knowledge of the pathological conditions affecting the sella and surrounding structures is important for the orbital imager.
