Advances in ultrasound biomicroscopy.
The visualisation of living tissues at microscopic resolution is attracting attention in several fields. In medicine, the goals are to image healthy and diseased tissue with the aim of providing information previously only available from biopsy samples. In basic biology, the goal may be to image biological models of human disease or to conduct longitudinal studies of small-animal development. H...
متن کاملOverview of Ultrasound Biomicroscopy
Ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) is a high-resolution ultrasound technique that allows noninvasive in vivo imaging of structural details of the anterior ocular segment at near light microscopic resolution and provides detailed assessment of anterior segment structures, including those obscured by normal anatomic and pathologic relations. This review gives an overview regarding the instrument, tec...
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 findings in peripheral vitreoretinal toxocariasis.
PURPOSE To describe the morphologic alterations in ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) present in peripheral vitreoretinal toxocariasis. METHODS An observational prospective study of case series. Fifteen eyes of 15 patients with clinical and laboratory diagnosis of peripheral vitreoretinal toxocariasis were enrolled. The patients were submitted to UBM examination of the region corresponding to the...
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...
