The impact of demographics and positioning on the imaging features of the optic nerve sheath and ophthalmic vessels
Our findings suggest a significant impact of patient demographics and positioning during ultrasonography on the normal imaging features of the ONSD and ophthalmic vessels. The heterogeneity in methodology and clinical cohorts may justify previous discrepancies in the literature. These findings can assist in the interpretation of imaging features in clinical settings and in the standardization of point of care ONSD ultrasonography.
