Y1 - 2021 N1 - T2 - Ma and Mateer's Emergency Ultrasound, 4e AB - Ultrasound of the globe and orbit can be a valuable tool in evaluating patients with serious eye complaints. Its benefit can even be extended to those with concerns for increased intracranial pressure (ICP). In many acute ocular conditions, the physical examination is difficult and often unreliable. Specialized equipment and ophthalmologic consultation are frequently unavailable in the emergency department (ED). In many circumstances, ultrasound is more accurate than traditional examination techniques for assessing a wide variety of ocular and orbital diseases, including penetrating globe injuries, retinal detachment, and papilledema.1−4 SN - PB - McGraw-Hill Education CY - New York, NY Y2 - 2024/03/29 UR - accessemergencymedicine.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?aid=1175880982 ER -
