[Clinical informative value of new methods of ultrasonic examination in the differential diagnosis of various forms of congenital diseases of the eyes in children].

Clinical informative value of computer echography for the differential diagnosis of severe intrauterine uveitis (68 children, 96 eyes), retinopathy neonatorum (37 children, 74 eyes), Coats' retinitis (35 children, 35 eyes), and retinoblastoma (17 children, 26 eyes) was studied in a group of 157 children (231 eyes) with opaque refracting media. Ultrasonic diagnostic equipment with a high level of computer support essentially improved the resolving capacity of echography and detected accessory acoustic signs of some congenital ocular diseases.
