Title: B-scan ultrasonography for the detection of space-occupying ocular masses. Author: Miller WW, Cartee RE. Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1985 Jul 01; 187(1):66-8. PubMed ID: 3894305. Abstract: A noninvasive technique, B-scan ultrasonography, was used to obtain detailed cross-sectional images of ocular and orbital structure and form. When a low-frequency probe (5 MHz) was used, tissue penetration was excellent; however, axial resolution was limited. The technique was used in a study of 2 cats and 1 dog. The use of low-frequency B-scan ultrasound should aid in the diagnostic examinations of space-occupying masses in the posterior portion of the ocular bulb and the orbit.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
