[Fluorescent ophthalmochromoscopy in the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis].
The authors applied a method of fluorescent ophthalmochromoscopy for the characteristics of the optic nerve in 61 patients with disseminated sclerosis. All the patients had undergone a comprehensive ophthalmological examination. A clinical characteristic is given for the initial period of disseminated sclerosis (I group of patients) and for the florid picture (II group). According to the ophthalmological examination disseminated sclerosis was suspected in 1/4 of the patients of the I group and in half of the patients of the second. The use of fluorescent ophtalmochromoscopy permitted to detect larvated lesions of the optic nerve, which by routine methods cannot be revealed. The use of this method with consideration for the period of contrasting the retinal vessles and phenomenon of the most intensive staining of the optic nerve discs permits to judge on the stage and activity of the pathological process.
