Zusammenfassung: | To assess the validity of neurosonological parameters (transorbital sonography (TOS)) for detection and monitoring of patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH).
Prospective, single-center, case-controlled study in 25 patients with IIH and 19 controls. Visual parameters of papilledema, visual acuity, computerized static threshold perimetry, fundus examination, and neurosonological parameters of papilledema/optic disc elevation (ODE), optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) and optic nerve diameter (OND) were recorded at baseline and only for patients with IIH again within 6 months.
ONSD was significantly enlarged among individuals with IIH (6.2 ± 0.73 mm) compared to controls (4.99 ± 0.54 mm; p |
