FAQs

What is MRI Orbit – Contrast?

MRI Orbit – Contrast is an advanced MRI examination that evaluates the eyes (orbits), optic nerves, eye muscles, lacrimal (tear) glands, blood vessels, and surrounding soft tissues using a gadolinium-based contrast agent. It provides highly detailed images to help diagnose a wide range of orbital and eye conditions.

Why is MRI Orbit – Contrast performed?

This examination is performed to diagnose or evaluate vision problems, optic nerve disorders, orbital tumors, inflammation, infections, thyroid eye disease (Graves' orbitopathy), eye muscle abnormalities, orbital trauma, vascular malformations, unexplained eye pain, double vision (diplopia), and postoperative changes.

What structures are evaluated during this examination?

The examination evaluates the eyes (globes), optic nerves, optic nerve sheath, extraocular muscles, lacrimal glands, orbital fat, blood vessels, surrounding soft tissues, and nearby brain structures.

Can MRI Orbit – Contrast detect optic nerve disorders?

Yes. MRI is one of the best imaging examinations for evaluating the optic nerves and can help detect optic neuritis, compression, tumors, inflammation, and other optic nerve abnormalities.

Can MRI Orbit – Contrast detect tumors or infections?

Yes. Contrast-enhanced MRI helps evaluate orbital tumors, abscesses, cellulitis, inflammatory conditions, vascular malformations, and other soft tissue abnormalities, allowing accurate assessment of their size, extent, and characteristics.
