Uveal melanoma, which is the most common primary intraocular malignancy in adults, arises from melanocytes within the iris, ciliary body and choroid. The diagnosis is based principally on clinical examination of the tumor with biomicroscopy and indirect ophthalmoscopy and confirmed by diagnostic techniques such as ultrasonography, fundus fluorescein angiography and optical coherence tomography....

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the role of annular ciliary body detachment in the development of postoperative angle-closure glaucoma. DESIGN Case series. SETTING Tertiary care glaucoma referral center. METHODS High-resolution, anterior segment ultrasound biomicroscopy, ophthalmoscopy, and B-scan ultrasonography were performed on 6 eyes of 6 patients with a clinical diagnosis of postoperative mali...

BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/ bcr-2017-219287 DESCRIPTION The ocular ultrasonography has evolved over years; the combined mode using A-scan and B-scan is very useful in the diagnosis of posterior segment pathology. Brightness mode helps in better evaluation of the mass lesion regarding their size, shape,...

  Abstract   Background: Hydronephrosis is the most common congenital condition that is detected   by prenatal ultrasonography. Moreover, the widespread use of prenatal ultrasonography   results in an increased recognition of fetal hydronephrosis. Prenatal hydronephrosis   is diagnosed at an incidence of 1:100 to 1:500 by ultrasonographic studies. The presence of hydronephrosis is not synonymou...

B-scan ultrasonography is now widely used in ophthalmology for investigation of orbital lesions and posterior segment lesions when direct visualisation is prevented by opacity in the ocular media. Most authors have concentrated on ultrasonic demonstration of posterior segment lesions, but the separation of diseases of anterior and posterior segments is largely artificial. The present study has ...
