Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: High-resolution, multipositional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used to demonstrate extraocular muscles (EOMs) and associated motor nerves in Duane retraction syndrome (DRS) linked to the DURS2 locus on chromosome 2. METHODS: Five male and three female affected members of two autosomal dominant DURS2 pedigrees were enrolled in the study. Coronal T(1)-weighted MRI of the orbits was obtained in...
