Abstract:
Ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) allows high-resolution imaging of the anterior segment due to ultrasound transducers between 50 and 100 MHz. At present stage of experience, mainly analysis of iris and ciliary body structures seem to be clinically rewarding. This is demonstrated by two similar looking tumors, involving the chamber angle. By means of UBM it was possible to differentiate between cystic and solid growths and to assess tumor extensions.

Ultrasonography
Ultrasonography is an imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize the body's internal structures. It is a non-invasive and safe procedure that does not involve the use of ionizing radiation, making it widely used in various medical fields. Ultrasonography is used to study heart function, blood flow in the neck or extremities, certain conditions such as gallbladder disease, and fetal growth and development.
