Normal values of flow velocity and resistance index of the ophthalmic, the central retinal, and the short posterior ciliary arteries by color Doppler ultrasound in Mexican population
Abstract:Background: Orbital color Doppler ultrasound (DU) is a useful tool for the diagnosis of orbital vascular disease. The values in healthy patients vary depending on the geographic region; the normal values for the Mexican population are unknown. Methods: This is a non-experimental cross-sectional descriptive study; 154 patients of legal age without relevant ocular disorders or surgical history were included, who underwent a DU of both orbits to measure the maximum systolic velocity (MSV), end-diastolic velocity,… Show more
