Optic nerve sheath ultrasound in the assessment of paediatric hydrocephalus
D McAuley, A Paterson, L Sweeney - Child's Nervous System, 2009 - Springer
Abstract Objects Optic nerve sheath diameter has been linked with intracranial pressure in
previous studies. Measurement of sheath diameter using transorbital ultrasound is proposed
as a clinical assessment indicator of developing hydrocephalus in the paediatric population.
Methods A retrospective review of optic nerve sheath ultrasound examinations performed in
a clinical setting between 2000 and 2006 for assessment of hydrocephalus in a single
institution. Results A total of 331 examinations were performed in 160 patients over the study …
