Agreement between gonioscopy and ultrasound biomicroscopy in detecting iridotrabecular apposition.
OBJECTIVE To assess the agreement between findings obtained at dark-room gonioscopy and ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) in the diagnosis of iridotrabecular apposition in light and dark conditions. METHODS We enrolled patients with appositional angle closure at dark-room gonioscopy performed using a 1-mm slitlamp beam that did not cross the pupil. Ultrasound biomicroscopic images were acquired ...
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 کاملAdvances 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 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...
