Figure 1From: Reproducibility and accuracy of optic nerve sheath diameter assessment using ultrasound compared to magnetic resonance imaging Transbulbar sonography and MRI of the optic nerve sheath. (A) The eye bulb and the optic nerve are displayed by B-mode sonography. The optic nerve sheath diameter was measured 3 and 5 mm behind the papilla (dotted arrow) in an axial plane showing the optic nerve in its longitudinal course. Transverse (B) and sagital (C) T2-weighted TSE sequences were created to schedule coronal and orthogonal HASTE sequences of the optic nerve sheath 3 mm (D) and 5 mm (E) behind the papilla.Back to article page
