Abstract

In this article, we review some basic aspects of imaging for neuro-ophthalmic and orbital diseases in children and summarize the recent literature on newer imaging modalities. First, we discuss the potential dangers related to the overuse of computed tomography scan due to radiation exposure and cancer risks, as this topic has been of concern to scientists and the general public recently. We then briefly review emerging MRI techniques that are of interest in neuro-ophthalmology.
