Ultrasound biomicroscopy as a diagnostic tool in infants with primary congenital glaucoma
PURPOSE Studying the role of ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) in detection of anterior segment changes in infants with primary congenital glaucoma (PCG). METHODS Cross-sectional study that included 25 eyes of 15 patients suffering from PCG and a control group of 15 eyes of ten age- and sex-matched participants. Diagnosis of PCG was based on clinical data (intraocular pressure, corneal diameter,...
متن کاملUltrasound Biomicroscopy in Glaucoma
The advent of the ultrasound biomicroscope (UBM) has made high resolution imaging of the anterior segment possible, permitting reproducible imaging of the cross-sectional anterior chamber angle anatomy. This article gives an outline of normal angle anatomy, technique of UBM and reviews the various applications of the UBM for glaucoma and illustrates how it can be a useful tool in the management...
متن کاملUltrasound Biomicroscopy in Glaucoma: An Update
UBM is a high-frequency ultrasound technology that provides exceptionally detailed two-dimensional gray-scale images of the various anterior segment structures and evaluates them both quantitatively and qualitatively. It allows noninvasive in vivo imaging of structural details of the anterior ocular segment at near microscopic resolution and thus, there are many other applications of this new i...
متن کاملUltrasound biomicroscopy in asymmetric pigment dispersion syndrome and pigmentary glaucoma.
OBJECTIVE To identify differences in anterior chamber anatomy among patients with asymmetric pigment dispersion syndrome and no other discernible cause for the asymmetry. METHODS Ultrasound biomicroscopy and A-scan biometry were performed on both eyes of 13 patients with asymmetric pigment dispersion syndrome without a known cause for asymmetric involvement. A radial perpendicular image in th...
