Magnetic resonance imaging of the orbit with diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and an apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC). Coronal T1 weighted with a gadolinium injection (a) shows enhancement of the right intraorbital optic nerve (arrow) along with restricted diffusion (arrow) on DWI (b), which was confirmed by the low signal (arrow) on the ADC map (c). Coronal T1 weighted with a gadolinium injection (d) shows enhancement of the right prechiasmatic optic nerve (arrow) along with restricted diffusion (arrow) on DWI (e), which was confirmed by the low signal (arrow) on the ADC map (f). Axial T1 weighted with a gadolinium injection (g) shows enhancement of the right optic nerve along with restricted diffusion on DWI (h), which was confirmed by the low signal on the ADC map (i)
