SCIENTIFIC CORRESPONDENCE Measurement of optic nerve sheath diameter by ultrasound: a means of detecting acute raised intracranial pressure in hydrocephalus
Aim: To evaluate the utility of measuring the optic nerve sheath diameter in children with shunted hydrocephalus, suspected of having raised intracranial pressure. Methods: 23 children with shunted hydrocephalus were examined, six had well controlled ICP, 17 however manifested symptoms suggestive of intracranial hypertension. A clinical history was taken from all patients and their parents or c...

متن کاملSonographic evaluation of optic nerve diameter in children with raised intracranial pressure.
OBJECTIVE The optic nerve is part of the central nervous system, and a rise in intracranial pressure (ICP) can directly affect the perioptic nerve space, leading to an increase in nerve diameter. Transorbital sonography is a safe and easy-to-perform method to measure optic nerve diameter for rapid diagnosis of increased ICP. METHODS The optic nerve diameter was measured in 3 individual occasi...
متن کاملOptic nerve ultrasound for the detection of raised intracranial pressure.
BACKGROUND Optic nerve ultrasonography (ONUS) may help identify raised intracranial pressure (ICP). The optimal optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) cut-off for the identification of intracranial hypertension has not been established, with some clinical studies suggesting a higher cut-off than may be expected on the basis of prior laboratory investigation. OBJECTIVE To validate ONUS performed b...
متن کاملTransorbital ultrasound measurement of optic nerve sheath diameter in normal rabbits
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the feasibility and reliability of transorbital ultrasound (TOUS) measurement of optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) in healthy rabbits and evaluate the influence of body weight and head circumference on the ONSD biometry. Methods: TOUS was performed to measure the ONSD 3 mm behind the optic disk in 31 adult male New Zealand White rabbits independently ...
