Quantification of enlargement of the levator palpebrae superioris muscle in thyroid eye disease

This study demonstrates that absolute LPS enlargement is a common finding in TED, occurring in nearly half of affected orbits. This is the first study to individually segment and quantify the extent of enlargement of the LPS relative to the SR using modern medical imaging.
