Pictorial essay: B-scan ultrasonography in ocular abnormalities
WEBB-scan ultrasonography (USG) is a simple, noninvasive tool for diagnosing lesions of the posterior segment of the eyeball. Common conditions such as cataract, vitreous degeneration, retinal detachment, ocular trauma, choroidal melanoma, and retinoblastoma can be accurately evaluated with this modality.
Using Ultrasound in Intraocular Diagnosis Part 2: Interpretation
WEBFeb 1, 2024 · Characteristics Seen on Ultrasound Scans. Pathology on B-scan can be evaluated by three primary characteristics: topographic, quantitative, and kinetic. Topography. Topographic characteristics of a lesion include its location in the eye, extension, and shape. Quantitative features.

WEBFeb 4, 2016 · Ocular ultrasound, also known as ocular echography, "echo," or a B-scan, is a quick, non-invasive test routinely used in clinical practice to assess the structural integrity and pathology of the eye.
How to interpret ophthalmic ultrasound: 5 most common scans
WEBHere is a summary of what the different ultrasound scans are used for: B scan: Used for evaluating the retina, retinal detachments, vitreous choroidal masses, tumors, and nevi. A scan: Used for ultrasound biometry (e.g. calculating axial length).
The Use of B-Scan Ultrasound in Primary Eye Care
WEBB-scan ophthalmic ultrasonography has the unique ability to evaluate the posterior ocular segment in cases when view of the retina is otherwise obscured by anterior segment or vitreous pathology.
