Sonographic Assessment of the Optic Nerve Sheath and Transorbital Monitoring of Treatment Effects in a Patient with Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension: Case Report

Abstract

The ultrasound-based evaluation of the optic nerve sheath may be helpful in detecting CSF hypovolemia and for determination of treatment effects. This report should be seen as a basis for future investigations on the sonographic assessment of the optic nerve sheath in diagnosis and treatment of intracranial hypotension.
