ULTRASOUND BIOMICROSCOPY IN GLAUCOMA
Although the vast majority of clinical ultrasound imaging is performed between 1 and 10 Mhz, new applications are
beginning to emerge in the highfrequency range between 10 and 40 Mhz.
Given the reduced penetration of highfrequency ultrasound, the eye is an ideal clinical application area for ultrasound
biomicroscopy.
The ability of ultrasound biomicroscopy to image anterior chamber structures in depth at high resolution makes it a
useful tool in glaucoma research and clinical practice. In this paper, several glaucoma patients examined with ultrasound
biomicroscopy are presented and the literature has been reviewed.Keywords: Ultrasound biomicroscopy, Glaucoma
