MRI and CT of sellar and parasellar disorders
Abstract
Discussion of the anatomy of the parasellar region focuses on the optic chiasm and its relationship to surrounding structures. CT and MRI are valuable tools in the imaging of these regions. This article provides a brief review of the technique of CT and MRI with visualized anatomic structures of these areas. A closer look at how CT and MRI are used to delineate the different pathologic processes of the sellar and parasellar regions then follows.
