Extraocular muscle sampled volume in Graves' orbitopathy using 3-T fast spin-echo MRI with iterative decomposition of water and fat sequences [PDF]
Background: Current magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques for measuring extraocular muscle (EOM) volume enlargement are not ideally suited for routine follow-up of Graves’ ophthalmopathy (GO) because the difficulty of segmenting the muscles at ...

Functional characterization of orbicularis oculi and extraocular muscles [PDF]
The orbicularis oculi are the sphincter muscles of the eyelids and are involved in modulating facial expression. They differ from both limb and extraocular muscles (EOMs) in their histology and biochemistry. Weakness of the orbicularis oculi muscles is a

Functional diversity of motoneurons in the oculomotor system [PDF]
Extraocular muscles contain two types of muscle fibers according to their innervation pattern: singly innervated muscle fibers (SIFs), similar to most skeletal muscle fibers, and multiply innervated muscle fibers (MIFs).

Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Optic Nerve Traction During Adduction in Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma With Normal Intraocular Pressure. [PDF]
PurposeWe used magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to ascertain effects of optic nerve (ON) traction in adduction, a phenomenon proposed as neuropathic in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG).MethodsSeventeen patients with POAG and maximal IOP ≤ 20 mm Hg, and

Axons Giving Rise to the Palisade Endings of Feline Extraocular Muscles Display Motor Features [PDF]
Palisade endings are nerve specializations found in the extraocular muscles (EOMs) of mammals, including primates. They have long been postulated to be proprioceptors. It was recently demonstrated that palisade endings are cholinergic and that in monkeys

Isolated schwannoma involving extraocular muscles [PDF]
Progressive strabismus initially considered idiopathic may be caused by isolated schwannomas of motor nerves to extraocular muscles, detectable only on careful imaging. This study reviewed clinical experience of a referral practice in identifying schwannomas on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).We reviewed 647 cases imaged for strabismus to identify ...
