Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the MRI features of erythromycin eye ointment entered into the orbital soft tissue of guinea pigs.Methods MRI was performed dynamically to observe the signal changes 1 day,1 week,2 weeks ,3 weeks and 4 weeks after erythromycin eye ointment was successfully injected into orbital soft tissue of guinea pigs ,as well as HE stainings to monitor retrob-ulbar soft tissue specimens at each time point were obtained.Results After the injection of erythromycin eye ointment 1 day,1 week,2 weeks,3 weeks and 4 weeks later,the signal intensity of erythromycin eye ointment was resemble to the surrounding soft tissue and indistinguishable on T2 WI.On T1 WI,the signal intensity of erythromycin eye ointment was higher than that of contralat-eral adipose body of orbit at 1day and 1 week,and slightly higher than the contralateral adipose body of orbit at 2 weeks and 3 weeks,but resemblance at 4 weeks.HE staining showed that inflammatory cell infiltration and tissue necrosis at 1 day,the presence of foreign body macrophages and fibroblasts at 2 weeks,and the inflammatory cells surrounding the optic nerve gradually subsided at 3 weeks and 4 weeks.Conclusion Fat-suppressed T1 WI is the best sequence to observe erythromycin eye ointment.Abnormal signal changes on T1 WI can reflect the histopathological changes after erythromycin eye ointment into the tissue.
