Abstract
In 2021, rapid magnetic resonance imaging (rMRI) became a primary imaging tool for suspected pediatric orbital cellulitis at our institution. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients who underwent rMRI to evaluate the effectiveness of the protocol. A total of 31 patients were included (median age, 5.07 years). Of the 30 diagnostic scans, 11 (37%) showed preseptal cellulitis, and 19 (63%) showed orbital cellulitis. In 5 cases, orbital contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) was additionally ordered; rMRI and CT scan findings were similar in all 5 cases. Overall, we observed 93% (28/30) concordance of rMRI with the final clinical diagnosis.
