A new ultrasonic apparatus for ophthalmology using manuel compound scanning. 1977

A Kaneko, and S Shigeyama, and R Uchida

A new ultrasonic equipment for ophthalmological diagnosis has been developed. Manual compound scanning using water immersion made acurate representation of cross-section of the orbital structure possible. A large, focused transducer brought resolution and sensitivity. Gray scale display of the ultrasonogram increased information concerning intensity of echoes. Ultrasonograms of retinoblastoma, vitreous hemorrhage, melanocytoma, optic disc coloboma and unilateral exophthalmos are presented.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007223	Infant	A child between 1 and 23 months of age.	Infants
D008545	Melanoma	A malignant neoplasm derived from cells that are capable of forming melanin, which may occur in the skin of any part of the body, in the eye, or, rarely, in the mucous membranes of the genitalia, anus, oral cavity, or other sites. It occurs mostly in adults and may originate de novo or from a pigmented nevus or malignant lentigo. Melanomas frequently metastasize widely, and the regional lymph nodes, liver, lungs, and brain are likely to be involved. The incidence of malignant skin melanomas is rising rapidly in all parts of the world.
