Résumé

To compare orbital quantitative data obtained by fast spin-echo iterative decomposition of water and fat with echo asymmetry and least-squares estimation (FSE-IDEAL) in patients with thyroid-associated orbitopathy (TAO) and healthy controls and to investigate the characteristics of these data in TAO patients. Twenty-two TAO patients (4 males and 18 females; median age 51.0 years) and 22 healthy subjects (5 males and 17 females; median age 50.5 years) underwent orbital T2-weighted FSE-IDEAL. The water fraction in orbital fat was defined as the signal intensity (SI) In TAO patients, the water fraction (right and left, p = 0.04), fat volume (right and left, p = 0.03) and degree of proptosis (right and left, p < 0.01) were higher than in the controls. In TAO patients, only the water fraction and the fat volume of left orbit showed negative correlation (p = 0.01). The water fraction of orbital fat, the orbital fat volume and the degree of proptosis obtained with FSE-IDEAL were higher in TAO patients than in the controls. The water fraction was a new parameter for differentiating between TAO patients and healthy subjects.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE OBJECTIVE
To compare orbital quantitative data obtained by fast spin-echo iterative decomposition of water and fat with echo asymmetry and least-squares estimation (FSE-IDEAL) in patients with thyroid-associated orbitopathy (TAO) and healthy controls and to investigate the characteristics of these data in TAO patients.
MATERIALS AND METHODS METHODS
Twenty-two TAO patients (4 males and 18 females; median age 51.0 years) and 22 healthy subjects (5 males and 17 females; median age 50.5 years) underwent orbital T2-weighted FSE-IDEAL. The water fraction in orbital fat was defined as the signal intensity (SI)
RESULTS RESULTS
In TAO patients, the water fraction (right and left, p = 0.04), fat volume (right and left, p = 0.03) and degree of proptosis (right and left, p < 0.01) were higher than in the controls. In TAO patients, only the water fraction and the fat volume of left orbit showed negative correlation (p = 0.01).
CONCLUSION CONCLUSIONS
The water fraction of orbital fat, the orbital fat volume and the degree of proptosis obtained with FSE-IDEAL were higher in TAO patients than in the controls. The water fraction was a new parameter for differentiating between TAO patients and healthy subjects.
