Abstract:Introduction/Objectives
Optic nerve sheath (ONS) enhancement using magnetic resonance imaging of the orbits was observed in patients with giant cell arteritis (GCA). We previously showed that ONS diameter (ONSD) by bedside ultrasound is increased in patient with active GCA. This study aims to assess whether ONSD decreases with clinical remission in patients with GCA.
Methods
A prospective cohort study was conducted from June 2022 to January 2023. Patients … Show more
