Imaging the anatomy of the eye socket (orbit)
Official title: Anatomical Assessment of Orbital Contents on Imaging
Run by University Hospital, Brest · NCT07360470 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This project looks at existing orbital imaging from adults to see how the eye muscles, optic nerve, and orbital fat are arranged.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults (age 18+) whose prior orbital imaging is available in the CHU Brest database and who did not oppose use of their data.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients without usable orbital imaging, those under 18, or those seeking direct therapeutic benefit are unlikely to receive personal benefit from this retrospective imaging analysis.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This is a single-center, retrospective review of existing orbital imaging performed at CHU Brest, focused on the six extraocular muscles, the optic nerve, and orbital fat. Researchers will extract anatomical and biometric measurements from usable imaging studies and record methods used to visualize the oculomotor muscles. The dataset will include adults over 18 who have not opposed use of their images, and no new tests or interventions are performed. Results are intended to inform clinical, medical, and surgical practice by improving anatomic understanding and measurement methods.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the findings could improve diagnosis and surgical planning for conditions affecting eye movement and the orbit.
How similar studies have gone: Similar imaging-based anatomical analyses of the orbit and extraocular muscles have been performed previously and have provided useful anatomic references for clinicians and surgeons.
