Diagnostic Utility of Diffusion-Weighted Imaging and Apparent Diffusion Coefficient for Common Orbital Lesions: A Review

Conclusions: Orbital masses encompass a host of benign and malignant etiologies and can present a diagnostic challenge on both clinical and radiological assessment. Recent advanced MRI techniques such as diffusion-weighted imaging and ADC can improve the diagnostic specificity for orbital disease, particularly in differentiating benign from malignant lesions and lymphoma from orbital inflammatory disease.
