Optic nerve sheath diameter assessment by neurosonology

Journal of Neuroimaging, 2021
Background and Purpose Reported cutoff values of the optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) for the diagnosis of elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) are inconsistent. This hampers ONSD as a possible noninvasive bedside monitoring tool for ICP. Because the influence of methodological differences on variations in cutoff values is unknown, we performed a ...

Node of Ranvier length as a potential regulator of myelinated axon conduction speed [PDF]

, 2017
Myelination speeds conduction of the nerve impulse, enhancing cognitive power. Changes of white matter structure contribute to learning, and are often assumed to reflect an altered number of myelin wraps. We now show that, in rat optic nerve and cerebral

Radiological Correlates of Raised Intracranial Pressure in Children: A Review. [PDF]

, 2018
Radiological assessment of the head is a routine part of the management of traumatic brain injury. This assessment can help to determine the requirement for invasive intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring. The radiological correlates of elevated ICP have

Measurement of Optic Nerve and Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter in MRI Brain

Journal of Institute of Medicine Nepal, 2023
Introduction: Many diseases affect the size of the optic nerve and optic nerve sheath, measurement of which is important for the diagnosis and treatment of different pathologies of the brain and orbit. This study aimed to measure the diameter of the optic nerve and optic nerve sheath in MRI brain examinations.
