title: [The significance of the Doppler techniques -- "color Doppler" and "power Doppler" -- in the diagnostic ultrasonography of the eyeball].
abstract: The eyeball is perfectly suited for ultrasound examination due to its location and structure. The ultrasound examination including the "color Doppler" and "power Doppler" option was performed in 59 patients. Ophthalmologists requested ultrasound examination in those patients mainly in order to confirm and differentiate retinal ablation or because of opacity of vitreous body of the eye. The ultrasound examination was performed with a Logiq 500 f-y GE unit equipped with a 7.5 MHz linear transducer and a 7.5 MHz linear transducer and a Hitachi 415 EUB applied. Primary retinal ablation was diagnosed in 27 cases, and in 14 cases retinal ablation was caused by a proliferative process. In 18 cases a different pathology was demonstrated including 6 patients in whom we detected an intraocular foreign body.
