description

In the past, the diagnosis of orbital lesions manifested clinically by unilateral or bilateral proptosis and/or impaired ocular motility has relied on conventional skull films and orbital radiographs, sonography, fluorescein angiography, internal and external carotid angiography, and ophthalmic venography. The introduction of CT, however, has greatly reduced the importance of invasive diagnostic procedures (Wende et al. 1977).
