Orbital rhabdomyosarcoma and simulating lesions.
The appropriate diagnosis and treatment of orbital rhabdomyosarcoma requires close cooperation and communication between the radiologist, the ophthalmologist, and the medical and radiation oncologists. The clinical presentation, imaging characteristics, and staging of orbital rhabdomyosarcoma are discussed. A discussion of several important simulating lesions and their distinguishing characteristics follows.
