EOM enlargement in carotid cavernous fistulas
This study evaluates the radiological patterns of extraocular muscle enlargement and proptosis in carotid cavernous fistulas (CCF). At least one muscle was enlarged in 27.5% of cases. The inferior rectus was most commonly enlarged, followed by the medial rectus. Proptosis...Stereotactic radiotherapy for polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy

Polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) is a variant of neovascular AMD. It is a disease of choroidal vasculature characterised by abnormal branching vascular network with aneurysmal dilatations (polyps). Features of PCV include pigment epithelial detachments (PED), subretinal fluid (SRF) accumulation and...
