Most of the SFTs were oval-shaped (67%) with a\u00a0sharp margin (83%). The most frequent locations were the laterocranial quadrant (44%), the extraconal space (67%) and the dorsal half of the orbit (67%). A flow void phenomenon was observed in nearly all cases (94%). On the T1-weighted imaging, tumor signal intensity (SI) was significantly lower than that of the retrobulbar fat and appeared predominantly equivalent (82%) to the temporomesial brain cortex, while on T2-weighted imaging its SI remained equivalent (50%) or slightly hyperintense to that of brain cortex. More than half of the lesions showed a\u00a0homogeneous contrast enhancement pattern with a\u00a0median SI increase of 2.2-fold compared to baseline precontrast imaging.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The SFT represents a\u00a0rare orbital tumor with several characteristic imaging features. It was mostly oval-shaped with a\u00a0sharp margin and frequently localized in the extraconal space and dorsal half of the orbit.
