  • Title: Combined B- and A-scan ultrasonography in the management and preoperative assessment of vitreo retinal pathology.
    Author: Coleman DJ.
    Journal: Mod Probl Ophthalmol; 1977; 18():12-26. PubMed ID: 876040.
    Abstract:
    Newer surgical techniques such as vitrectomy instrumentation and microsurgery now allow us to take a full advantage of ultrasonic evaluation of vitreal-retinal pathology. The ultrasonic techniques of A- and B-scan as well as M-scan allow us to more adequately evaluate the opaque vitreous, retinal detachment, traumatic changes to the globe, thus directing the newer surgical techniques to achieve therapeutic results never previously possible.
