RESUMEN

In the Philippine setting, hospitals, particularly government, provincial and regional hospitals are equipped with general body scanners. Ophthalmic ultrasound particularly the ocular B-scan ultrasound is not available. Can a B-scan general body ultrasound be used for visualizing gross intra-ocular disease? It is the objective of this study to describe the usefulness of a 7.5MHz general body ultrasound in detecting and supporting diagnosis for specific intra-ocular conditions. After a thorough history and physical examination, a total of 11 eyes were examined with diagnosis of retinal detachments, vitreous hemorrhage, dislocated lens, intra-ocular foreign body and a normal eye for comparison. All examinations were done by only one senior radiology resident. Results obtained from the 7.5MHz transducer were compared to either an ophthalmic B-scan ultrasound, X-rays or as reported by direct visualization. The result of this study is encouraging because the 7.5MHz B-scan general body ultrasound transducer was able to help in the diagnosis of intraocular diseases and intraocular foreign bodies especially when the posterior pole was not visible.
