The Efficacy of B-Mode and Color Doppler Ultrasound in Evaluation of Various Intraorbital Disorders

Abstract

This review aims to present studies evaluating B-mode and color Doppler ultrasound as innovative techniques for ocular inspection and to furnish information regarding various intraorbital illnesses. Orbital ultrasonography is a swift and noninvasive procedure that has great sensitivity in visualizing an orbital mass; nevertheless, its specificity in the differential diagnosis of orbital lesions is limited, especially when malignancy is a concern. The evaluation of ocular illnesses necessitates several diagnostic strategies to reconcile the advantages and disadvantages of each technique. B-mode ultrasonography is a straightforward, quick, and objective technique for the quantitative evaluation of pupillary function.
