Abstract
Ultrasound Biomicroscopy is a newly developed high resolution imaging method that uses high frequency ultrasound (50-100 MHz). Tissue penetration is about 4 mm. This method allows detailed observation of anterior and posterior chamber anatomy in the living eye, and is thus a useful tool in both clinical assessment of glaucoma, and research into causes of various glaucoma types.Keywords
