Radiography in functional lacrimal testing.

J J Hurwitz, R A Welham

    The British Journal of Ophthalmology
    |June 1, 1975

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    This study evaluated Angiographin for lacrimal drainage imaging in 25 patients. While useful, it was less effective than ultra-fluid Lipiodol for dacryocystography.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • The lacrimal drainage apparatus is crucial for eye health.
    • Accurate imaging is vital for diagnosing lacrimal system disorders.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To assess the functional imaging of the lacrimal drainage apparatus using Angiographin.
    • To compare Angiographin with other contrast agents in dacryocystography.

    Main Methods:

    • A functional study involving 25 patients undergoing lacrimal drainage imaging.
    • Instillation of Angiographin into the conjunctival sac followed by serial radiography.
    • Interpretation of radiographs alongside intubation macro-dacryocystograms.

    Main Results:

    • Angiographin facilitated functional imaging of the lacrimal drainage system.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • The procedure demonstrated diagnostic utility for lacrimal apparatus assessment.
  • Angiographin's performance was found to be inferior to ultra-fluid Lipiodol in comparative analysis.

    • Conclusions:

    • Angiographin can be used for functional lacrimal drainage studies.
    • Ultra-fluid Lipiodol is a preferred contrast agent for dacryocystography compared to Angiographin.
