7CONTRIBUTORS 11FOREWORD
An antique proverb says that “One image is better than one thousand words”; nothing more than this truly applies to the echographic study of the eye. After two decades dedicated to the study and performance of the ophthalmic ultrasound, it is an honor and an enormous pleasure for me, to present to you and contribute in this magnificent Jaypee Gold Standard Mini Atlas Series: Ophthalmic Ultrasound.
When performing a historical review of ophthalmic ultrasound, we find that the media opacities were the initial motivation for the application of the ultrasound to the eye structures. Many things have changed since those beginning years. Currently, because of the efforts of many researches, many concepts have evolved since then, involving within many advantages to this particular study. Maybe we can say that the more important are as follows:
This book has explored all these new and antique possibilities of ophthalmic ultrasonography in a smooth and comprehensive way. Renowned ophthalmologists from around the world, are showing us in this mini atlas different pathologies from the point of view of the ocular echography. We can learn from one image; but furthermore, this opus is showing us the current state of this technology and leave us to enter in the field of imagination, about the possibilities that the ophthalmic 13ultrasonography will bring in the future, by itself or in conjunction to some other technologies for the diagnosis, follow-up and biometry of the eye and neighbor structures.
It has been a tremendous honor for me to participate and present to you this magnificent opus. I congratulate chief editor, editors and contributing authors for their remarkable efforts.

15PREFACE
Ophthalmic ultrasound is an important diagnostic tool for various ocular and orbital diseases. A-scan biometry is quite significant for anterior segment surgeons for detecting axial length, depth of anterior chamber and IOL power calculation in cataract and lenticular refractive surgery. B-scan ultrasonography is commonly used by posterior segment surgeons in the diagnosis of various ocular pathologies and intraocular and retrobulbar tumors.
Concept of this book is to provide text and echograms details in an easy-to-read mini atlas form to serve as ready reckoner to ophthalmologists in their day-to-day practice. Nineteen chapters of this book provide in-depth analysis of A-scan and B-scan ultrasonography in all major ocular conditions in a comprehensive manner. This book provides correlation between clinical and ultrasound findings in a beautiful manner. International experts on this subject have shared their experiences in this mini atlas book.
At the end we are grateful to our publishers M/s Jaypee Brothers Medical Publishers (P) Ltd. especially Shri Jitendar P Vij (Chairman and Managing Director), Mr Tarun Duneja (Director-Publishing) and all staff members who took keen interest in this project and published it expeditiously.
Certainly, this book shall serve as quick look companion to ophthalmologists in their consultation room.
