AB  - Seventy cases of space-occupying lesions in the eyeball and 140 extraocular masses in the orbit were explored by both sonography and compute tomography (CT). The merits of each method were demonstrated relative to defining the location, extension, and nature of the lesion. In adults with ocular masses, sonography is usually sufficient. For retinoblastoma, CT is usually necessary to rule out an extraocular extension. When an orbital process is involved, greater diagnostic accuracy can be achieved if the two methods are combined.
