Sarcoidosis, a systemic disease of unknown cause, frequently involves the eye, orbit, and central nervous system. The MR imaging findings of orbital and optic pathway sarcoidosis may closely resemble several other orbital and intracranial diseases. This article reviews MR imaging findings of sarcoidosis when it involves the eye, orbit, and visual pathways. Careful review of MR findings and other neuroimaging findings and clinical characteristics will reduce the incidence of mistaking optic nerve and chiasmal sarcoidosis for meningioma or glioma.
结节病是一种病因不明的全身性疾病，常累及眼睛、眼眶和中枢神经系统。眼眶及视神经通路结节病的磁共振成像（MR）表现可能与其他几种眼眶及颅内疾病极为相似。本文综述了结节病累及眼睛、眼眶及视觉通路时的MR成像表现。仔细分析MR表现及其他神经影像学表现和临床特征，将降低把视神经及视交叉结节病误诊为脑膜瘤或胶质瘤的发生率。
