Abstract
Purpose. To evaluate the relationship of clinical and radiologic findings in improving of diagnostics and amendment of the outcome.Material and methods. 52 patients (104 orbial cavities) in the age of 18–61 years were examined. Patients with the clinical symptoms of Grave’s orbitopathy were examined using ophthalmological evaluation and MSCT-visualization of orbial cavities.Results. The most significant MSCT-parameters for the determination of severity are: prolapse of orbital fat (р = 0.0009), protrusion of eye bulb (р = 0.001), apical inspissations (р = 0.019), density of RBCmin (р = 0.004), size of external terminal membrane (р = 0.001), size of LRM (р = 0.002), size of MRM (р = 0.006), length of optic nerve (р = 0.0001), diameter of optic nerve in 1 cm from the macula (р = 0.01), width of lacrimal gland (р = 0.0002).Conclusions. There is significant relationship between clinical and radiologic (MSCT) features. It lets develop the protocolof examination for diagnostics and treatment of Grave’s orbitopathy.
