Abstract
Modern imaging techniques are discussed. These imaging modalities, including computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, have dramatically improved our ability to assess orbital soft tissues. This has resulted in an increased ability for the physician to assess orbital health, as well as more effectively plan surgical intervention when it is needed due to injury or disease.
