Orbital and cerebral involvement in ROCM. Axial fat-saturated T2-weighted image (A) shows a well-defined hypointense lesion (straight long arrow) in the right temporal lobe with surrounding edema (curved arrow). Right intraconal fat (white star) shows stranding with associated proptosis of the right eyeball. Axial contrast-enhanced fat-saturated T1-weighted image (B) shows peripheral enhancement of the temporal lobe lesion (straight long arrow) along with the enhancement of meninges (curved arrow). The right lateral rectus muscle appears bulky with heterogeneous enhancement (straight short arrow). Also note enhancing soft tissue in the right orbital apex (white star). The temporal lobe lesion (straight white arrows) in axial diffusion-weighted (C) and apparent diffusion coefficient (D) images shows central diffusion restriction, suggestive of an intracerebral abscess
