Sonographic assessment of the optic nerve sheath diameter in the diagnosis of idiopathic intracranial hypertension
P del Saz-Saucedo, O Redondo-González… - Journal of the …, 2016 - Elsevier
Objective: Sonographic assessment of the optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) is a useful
technique in detecting raised intracranial pressure (ICP) in neurocritical care patients. Its
utility in idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is less known. The aim of this study was to
evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of ONSD for detecting IIH. Material and methods:
Ultrasound measurement of ONSD was performed in 19 patients with IIH and in 11 patients
with different neurological diseases without raised ICP that required undergoing a lumbar …
