Multimodal imaging evaluation and management of orbital metastasis: experience at a single institution

Key Points

• To evaluate and manage orbital metastasis using multimodal imaging techniques.
• Assess common primary malignancies that metastasize to the orbit.
• Utilize ultrasound for screening suspected orbital metastasis lesions.
• Analyze the infiltration of metastasis into extraocular muscles.
• Breast carcinoma, melanoma, and lung carcinoma are commonly involved in orbital metastasis.
• Ultrasound proves reliable in evaluating suspicious lesions.
• Patients with orbital metastasis generally have poor survival outcomes.
