['To determine the relationship between movements of the posterior and anterior eye segments during arbitrary gaze shifts and to obtain information for monitoring fixation during radiotherapy for ocular diseases.', 'We examined eye movements of ten emmetropic volunteers in a 1.5 T magnetic resonance system. Using a T2-weighted ultrafast turbo-spin echo sequence (UTSE), the eyes were examined within 21 seconds. Sagittal and transversal eye slices were obtained in five passages in five gaze directions (straight ahead, 15 degrees above, 15 degrees below, 15 degrees right and 15 degrees left of the primary position). Displacement of the posterior eye segment was analyzed in relation to the movement of the anterior segment in all directions.', 'The relationship between the movements of the anterior and posterior eye segment was 1:0.8 (+/- 0.06 SD) during horizontal gaze shifts and 1:1.16 (+/- 0.11 SD) during vertical gaze shifts.'] Do magnetic resonance imaging analysis of anterior and posterior eye segment displacement during ocular gaze shifts?
