2 Artifact from Incomplete Orbital Fat Suppression on Magnetic Resonance ImagingOrbital fat has short relaxation times that results in a hyperintense appearance on T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Fat suppressed T1 MRI sequences are needed to remove the fat signal and better visualize the orbital anatomy, including the optic nerve. Contrast can be used with fat sup...Matthew Boyko, MD; Valérie Biousse, MD
