    • Abstract:
      Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the orbit have been competing for the hearts and minds of health care providers for well over 2 decades. While several drawbacks pertaining to CT have been outlined since the introduction of MRI, CT remains the standard diagnostic test for evaluating cross-sectional, 2 or 3-dimensional images of the body.
