PURPOSE: To review and summarize the existing literature surrounding the clinical use of diffusion-weighted imaging and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) as diagnostic tools in differentiating common orbital lesions.
METHODS: A systematic literature review on the use of ADC and diffusion-weighted imaging sequences for orbital imaging was performed. Only original research articles that reported ADC values for benign or malignant lesions were included.
RESULTS: Malignant orbital tumors have an overall lower mean ADC value than benign masses. Orbital lymphoma is characterized by consistently lower ADC values compared with other malignant orbital masses; a threshold value less than 0.775 × 10 -3 mm 2 /s has been proposed to distinguish orbital lymphoma from other neoplastic and non-neoplastic orbital masses. To differentiate orbital inflammatory disease from lymphoma, an ADC threshold greater than 0.92 × 10 -3 mm 2 /s has been proposed.
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.
