Sankara Nethralaya Atlas of Imaging in Ophthalmology



Written by authors from one of Asia's premier ophthalmology institutes the purpose of this atlas is to provide ophthalmologists and other physicians concerned with eye diseases with a carefully selected collection of quality illustrations that review the spectrum of diseases commonly seen in Neuro-ophthalmic practice.

In this last two decades, there have been intense revolutionary changes in the field of imaging and their applications in various aspects of ophthalmology and particularly in neuro-ophthalmology. This book aims to cover the important aspects of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the diagnosis of various ophthalmic diseases. The atlas consists of extensive collection of CT and MRI images of various ocular, orbital and neuro-ophthalmic disorders. It also deals with most of the neurological diseases with ophthalmic manifestations with vivid portrayal of their imaging characteristics. All the clinical images used in this atlas belong to patients seen only in our organization (Sankara Nethralaya: A Unit of Medical Research Foundation), which is a tertiary referral ophthalmic institution.
