High myopia continues to progress and the eye axis continues to grow, resulting in mechanical dilatation of the eyeball wall, and with the increase of age, resulting in a variety of myopic fundus pathological changes. Considering that in the late stage of fundus disease, patients can obviously feel the impact of the disease on vision, and ophthalmologists are needed for direct diagnosis, intervention and treatment. The impact of early lesions on vision is relatively weak, and patients can not detect the emergence of these lesions in time, which can only be found by fundus survey. Therefore, the automatic detection of early lesions of fundus disease (especially microaneurysms) is not only of great significance for early diagnosis and early treatment of fundus disease, but also a good reference for the detection of other fundus diseases. In this paper, color ultrasound can effectively analyze the origin of fundus diseases. The results showed that with the changes of age, eye axis and posterior sclera shape in high myopia, the area and range of myopic arc and choroidal atrophy arc expanded, the thickness of nerve fiber and choroid became thinner, and the fovea of macula mainly shifted vertically. In addition, it was also found that myopic arc, choroidal atrophic arc area, retinal thickness, nerve fiber thickness, choroidal thickness, vertical distance from macular fovea to optic disc center were correlated with age and eye axis.

Abstract Background Digital subcutaneous tissue (SCT) changes are involved in dactylitis, a hallmark feature of psoriatic arthritis (PsA). There are no studies on the ultrasound (US) characteristics of the digital SCT in the general population. Objectives To investigate the variability in US-measured thickness (TH) and color Doppler (CD)-detected blood flow of the SCT of the volar aspects of the fingers in a non-psoriatic population and to investigate the impact of the scanning method and demographics and clinical features on these measurements. Methods SCT TH and semiquantitative (SQD) and quantitative (QD) Doppler signals were measured in the bilateral second finger at the proximal and middle phalanges in 81 non-psoriatic volunteers [49 female, 32 men; 18–78 years]. Two scanning methods with and without (thick gel layer interposition) probe-skin contact were used. Demographics and clinical features were collected. Results There was high variability of SCT TH and Doppler measurements between individuals. All US measurements obtained without probe-skin contact were significantly greater than their corresponding measurements obtained with the probe contacting the skin (p < 0.001). SCT TH was positively related to dominant hand, age, masculine gender, weight, height, body mass index, and alcohol consumption while Doppler measurements were positively related to age and non-dominant hand. Conclusions US-measured SCT thickness and Doppler-detected SCT blood flow of the volar aspect of the fingers seem to be highly variable in the non-psoriatic population as well as highly dependent on the US scanning method. This variability is of utmost importance for assessing dactylitis in PsA.

We show an unusual presentation of a schwannoma that was located in the ungual bed of the left great toe. The clinical, color Doppler ultrasound imaging, and histologic findings are shown to illustrate the case. This type of neurogenic tumor and the ultrasound presurgical imaging support should be considered when dealing with subungual tumors of the foot.

Purpose: To investigate whether an imaging technique combining color Doppler ultrasonography and selective renal artery digital subtraction angiography reduces contrast requirements in patients with progressive renal insufficiency undergoing renal artery angioplasty and stenting. Methods: Eight patients (5 men; mean age 58 years) with renal artery stenosis and renal insufficiency underwent percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stenting under color Doppler ultrasound guidance. Results: Color Doppler ultrasound imaging yielded the information necessary for verifying catheter position, stent placement and expansion, and hemodynamics after revascularization. The combined imaging technique considerably reduced contrast requirements to only 10 mL in each case. No worsening of renal function was seen in any patient. Conclusions: The combined imaging procedure uses low doses of contrast agent and is especially suited to patients with renal dysfunction undergoing percutaneous renal revascularization.
