The Eyes Have It: Ophthalmic Ultrasound in a General Ultrasound Practice

Dr. Steve Kwong

Dr. Steve Kwong. Many eye problems can be effectively evaluated using standard equipment in general ultrasound departments. As in all of ultrasound, a working knowledge of the visible anatomy as well as the commonly encountered pathologic processes is required. During this session we will discuss the use of general ultrasound equipment in the evaluation of the eye, we will review the pertinent anatomy which can be evaluated with this equipment, and we will examine the use of ultrasound in evaluating the patient with sudden vision loss or with a possible ocular mass, the two most common presentations in our facility.
