Kirsch E et al. – MRI should be considered in atypical cases as in asymmetrical orbital involvement, to exclude other orbital pathologies and to confirm the clinical suspicion of apical optic nerve compression in Graves' orbitopathy. Computed tomography provides precise imaging of the osseous periorbital structures and does not reveal information on the disease activity in most cases. It is therefore the method of choice to plan CT–guided orbital decompression surgery in the inactive phase of disease.
