Abstract

Four cases of biopsy proven orbital cavernous hemangioma were studied with magnetic resonance imaging. The hemangiomas were isointense with brain on T1-weighted spin echo (SE) images and well differentiated from adjacent structures due to intense signal from surrounding fat. The T2-weighted SE images of the hemangioma were of high signal intensity in comparison to the orbital fat. The use of surface receiving coils produced striking detail of all soft tissue structures especially on T1-weighted images.
