Ultrasonic optic disc height combined with the optic nerve sheath diameter as a promising non-invasive marker of elevated intracranial pressure

Ultrasonic optic disc height combined with the optic nerve sheath diameter as a promising non-invasive marker of elevated intracranial pressure

Background/aim: Patients with elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) tend to have optic disc edema and a thicker optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD). However, the cut-off value of the optic disc height (ODH) for evaluating elevated ICP is not clear. This study was conducted to evaluate ultrasonic ODH a...
