Abstract
Orbital wall infarction in a patient with sickle cell disease can present with periorbital swelling and subperiosteal collection and thus can mimic infection on CT. However, MR not only provides excellent morphologic information but, by characterizing the nature of the collection as containing blood, and by identifying bone marrow abnormality, can lead to the diagnosis of orbital wall infarction.
