purpose : to compare laser interferometry (li) and ultrasound a-scan in measurement of axial length ( al ) in eyes with asteroid hyalosis methods : twenty three patients with unilateral moderate to severe asteroid hyalosis determined by b-scan ultrasonography images participated in the study. the al measurements were obtained by li and ultrasound a-scan in both asteroid hyalosis and noninvolved...

Background:Prenatal ultrasound plays an important role in the early and accurate evaluation of the congenital skeletal and non-skeletal abnormalities of the fetus and is effective in predicting pregnancy outcomes. Congenital femoral deficiency (CFD) is a rare complicated and non-hereditary anomaly that includes the hypoplasia of a portion of the femoral bone with shortening the lower limb. Cas...

Screening for lower extremity peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is essential in assessing a patient’s risk of cerebrovascular disorders. The ankle-brachial index (ABI) widely used as screening tool PAD, but it can produce falsely normalized results due to factors like artery calcification and collateral vessels. We report patient with normal ABI confirmed PAD through ultrasound computed tomogra...

Background Small for gestational age (SGA) refers to newborns whose birth weight is less than the 10th percentile for gestational age. The aim of this study was to provide a comparative assessment of ultrasound placental findings in SGA and normal-weight fetuses in singleton pregnant women. Materials and Methods In...

   Background: Developmental dysplasia of hip (DDH) is a common childhood disorder, and ultrasonography examination is routinely used for screening purposes. In this study, we aimed to evaluate a modified combined static and dynamic  ultrasound technique for the detection of DDH and to compare with the results of static and dynamic ultrasound techniques.    Methods:In this cross-sectional study...

In this longitudinal prospective observational study performed at a tertiary perinatal referral centre, we aimed to assess maternal distress in pregnancy in women with ultrasound findings of fetal anomaly and compare this with distress in pregnant women with normal ultrasound findings. Pregnant women with a structural fetal anomaly (n = 48) and normal ultrasound (n = 105) were included. We admi...
