title: Contact B-scan ultrasonography: a practical approach.
abstract: The Bronson-Turner ultrasonoscope is an extremely practical, simple ultrasound device for the clinician. Used with real time, gray scale, and three-dimensional thinking, this unit has gained wide acceptance. It is designed primarily for clinical diagnostic ocular examination; with experience, it can be used for orbital interpretation as well. Axial length measurement with this instrument is only approximate.
