Popis: | Sagittal scans of the brain and orbits can be performed with the Varian body scanner and an accessory table. These scans are obtained directly, with no image reconstruction from scans in other planes. A case of Graves' ophthalmopathy is presented which demonstrates the potential advantage of sagittal images in showing abnormalities near the orbital roof and floor. Sagittal scans complement coronal and axial views in CT evaluation of the orbits. |
