Lymphocyte and magnetic resonance imaging in thyroid-associated ocular diseases
Thyroid associated ophthalmopathy(TAO)is the most common orbital disease.As an autoimmune disease,the basic pathological process of TAO is the infiltration of orbital immune cells,activation of orbital fibroblasts,proliferation and differentiation of orbital fibroblasts and lymphocytes.Lymphocyte is the key to the pathogenesis of thyroid eye disease,but its mechanism is not fully understood.Magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)has been widely used in TAO due to its high soft tissue resolution,providing more objective information for the staging and grading of TAO from various perspectives.Therefore,this paper summarizes the role of lymphocytes in TAO and the application of MRI technology in TAO to guide clinical decision-making and provide reference direction for future research.
