Atlas of Ophthalmic Ultrasound and Ultrasound Biomicroscopy (2^nd Ed.)

The new edition of this atlas has been fully updated to provide practising ophthalmologists and residents with the latest advances in ophthalmic ultrasound. 

Divided into ten sections, the atlas begins with an introduction to imaging techniques and interpretation, followed by in depth examination of ultrasound for the diagnosis and management of ocular diseases and disorders, including vitreoretinal diseases, trauma, infections and inflammations, tumours, congenital disorders, lesions, and optic nerve disorders. A complete section is dedicated to surgical considerations.

This second edition has a completely new section on ultrasound biomicroscopy, and features numerous colour fundus photographs, ultrasound illustrations and external photos, as well as CT scans and MRI scans of the orbit. A DVD ROM image bank is also included.
