Application Of Ophthalmic Ultrasound In Medicine
Ophthalmic ultrasound has a wide range of applications in medicine. By evaluating the internal structures of the eyeball, such as the retina, vitreous body, lens, and optic nerve, it can promptly diagnose important diseases such as retinal detachment, eye tumors such as uveal melanoma, and vitreous hemorrhage. In addition, ophthalmic ultrasound can also help evaluate the anterior segment structures of the eye, such as the cornea, iris, lens, and aqueous humor, and plays a key role in the diagnosis of diseases such as corneal diseases, glaucoma, and iridocyclitis. It can also be used to evaluate the surrounding structures of the eyeball, such as orbital tumors, inflammation, and trauma, and to monitor the surgical effects before and after eye surgery, and to promptly detect postoperative recurrence or complications. In summary, ophthalmic ultrasound, as an important non-invasive examination method, provides ophthalmologists with key anatomical information to help diagnose and treat various eye diseases.
Different Types Of Ophthalmic Ultrasound
A-scan ultrasound: This ultrasound is used to measure the depth of various structures within the eye, mainly used to measure the thickness of the lens, the depth of the anterior chamber, and the size of intraocular tumors. A-scan ultrasound achieves these measurements by measuring the time it takes for sound waves to reflect back from different tissues in the eye.
B-scan ultrasound: This is a two-dimensional ultrasound technology that can provide detailed images of structures within the eye. B-scan ultrasound can be used to diagnose eye diseases such as retinal detachment, vitreous hemorrhage, and eyeball tumors. It can also evaluate structures around the orbit, such as detecting orbital tumors, trauma, or inflammation.
Ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM): Ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) is a high-resolution ultrasound imaging technology specifically used for detailed examination of anterior chamber structures. UBM can provide detailed images of anterior chamber structures including the cornea, iris, lens, aqueous humor channels, and ciliary body. This technology is particularly useful in evaluating glaucoma, iridocyclitis, and other anterior chamber diseases. Through UBM, doctors can clearly see the morphological changes in the anterior chamber angle, the flow path of aqueous humor, and the structural condition of the ciliary body, so as to more accurately diagnose the disease and monitor the treatment effect. In addition, UBM also plays an important role in the preoperative evaluation and postoperative follow-up of complex anterior chamber lesions, helping doctors to formulate and adjust treatment plans.
How To Choose Ophthalmic Ultrasound
Symptoms and medical conditions: Determine which structures of the eye need to be evaluated based on the patient’s symptoms and medical conditions. For example, if retinal detachment is suspected, a B-mode ultrasound may be required.
Purpose and diagnostic needs: Determine the specific purpose of the ophthalmic ultrasound, whether it is for diagnosis, evaluation of treatment effects, or monitoring of disease changes. Different types of ophthalmic ultrasound have different application ranges and advantages, and doctors will choose the appropriate ultrasound technology based on specific circumstances.
Patient condition and cooperation: Consider the patient’s age, health, eye condition, and cooperation. Some ultrasound examinations may require the patient to keep the eye stable or cooperate with the doctor to complete the examination, so the patient’s cooperation is also one of the considerations in choosing an ophthalmic ultrasound.
Hospital equipment and expertise: Make sure the hospital where the ophthalmic ultrasound is performed has the relevant equipment and professionals to provide accurate examination results and diagnostic opinions.
Risks and contraindications: Consider the risks that the patient may face and the contraindications that exist. For patients in certain specific conditions, certain types of ophthalmic ultrasound examinations may not be suitable.
Main Advantages Of Ophthalmic Ultrasound
Non-invasive: Ophthalmic ultrasound is a non-invasive examination method that uses ultrasound to obtain images and information of ocular structures without puncturing the eyeball or using radiation.
Comprehensiveness: Ophthalmic ultrasound can provide a detailed assessment of the internal structure of the eyeball, the periorbital structure, and the anterior segment of the eye, including the retina, vitreous body, lens, iris, cornea, and other aspects.
Real-time: Some ophthalmic ultrasound technologies can provide real-time images to help doctors observe the dynamic changes of ocular structures during the examination, which is particularly important for certain patients in certain situations.
Auxiliary diagnosis: Ophthalmic ultrasound can serve as a supplement to other ophthalmic examinations to help doctors make more accurate diagnoses of ocular diseases, especially for those cases where it is difficult to obtain sufficient information through other means.
Pre- and postoperative monitoring: Before and after ophthalmic surgery, ophthalmic ultrasound can be used to monitor the effect of surgery and promptly detect postoperative recurrence or complications.
Applicable to children and special populations: For some clinical situations, such as children or patients in special situations, ophthalmic ultrasound is a relatively safe and feasible examination method that can avoid the difficulties or risks of other examination methods.
The Importance Of Ophthalmic Ultrasound
Providing key information: Ophthalmic ultrasound can provide important information about the structure of the eye, which is essential for diagnosing and treating eye diseases. Through ultrasound imaging, doctors can observe various structures inside the eye, including the retina, lens, iris, etc., to help determine the nature and extent of the disease.
Auxiliary diagnosis: For some ophthalmic diseases, such as retinal detachment, vitreous hemorrhage, intraocular tumors, etc., routine eye examinations are difficult to provide sufficient information, and ophthalmic ultrasound can be used as an auxiliary diagnosis to help doctors make more accurate diagnoses.
Preoperative evaluation: Before ophthalmic surgery, ophthalmic ultrasound can provide a detailed assessment of the patient’s ocular structure to help doctors develop surgical plans and assess surgical risks.
Postoperative monitoring: For patients who have undergone ophthalmic surgery, ophthalmic ultrasound can be used to monitor the results of the surgery and detect complications or recurrences in a timely manner.
Applicability for children and special circumstances: For patients in some special circumstances, such as children or patients with other limitations, ophthalmic ultrasound is a relatively safe and feasible examination method.
Structural evaluation: Through ultrasound imaging, doctors can evaluate the morphology and state of the internal structures of the eyeball, which helps diagnose various eye diseases.
