PURPOSE: To describe artifacts on orbital MRI, which led to an incorrect radiology report.
METHODS: Retrospective chart review of patients identified from the orbital databases at the Royal Adelaide Hospital and University of Wisconsin Hospital. Patients who had artifacts on orbital MRI that led to an incorrect radiology report were included. Records were evaluated for age at imaging, gender, MRI sequence, laterality, and location of artifact, radiological characteristics and misdiagnosis, and cause of artifact.
RESULTS: Data were collected from 7 patients (3 male) who had a median age of 61 years at the time of imaging. Five artifacts resulted from fat-suppression failure with 4 of these cases misdiagnosed as inflammatory changes and 1 misdiagnosed as neoplastic infiltration. The OD was involved in 4 cases. Six cases were in the inferior orbit region.
CONCLUSIONS: Fat-suppression failure artifacts may arise in the inferior orbit region and can be mistaken for inflammatory or neoplastic orbital disease. This may prompt additional investigations such as orbital biopsy. Clinicians should be aware of artifacts which can affect orbital MRI and lead to potential misdiagnosis.
