[Echographic findings in rhegmatogenous retinal detachment].
Echography of the bulbus is a useful examination method in eyes with a detached retina. It is essential in particular in eyes with opaque optic media, where the result of the ultrasonographic examination is frequently decisive for further therapeutic procedures. The echographic finding in rhegmatogenic detachment of the retina is usually quite typical and it is possible to assess relatively accurately the extent and shape of detachment. From echographic signs also the duration of detachment can be estimated. Ultrasound can also detect and locate a major retinal tear. A very effective method in the differential diagnosis of detachment of the retina is standardized echography of the bulbus.
