  2. Exophthalmometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exophthalmometer

    In children and teenagers mean exophthalmometric measurements increase with age: Less than 4 years old (13.2 mm), 5–8 years old (14.4 mm), 9–12 years old (15.2 mm) and 13–17 years old (16.2 mm). [4] Axial Length of the eye affects exophthalmometer reading. Pseudoproptosis may be seen in severe myopia. [5]

  3. Exophthalmos - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exophthalmos

    Exophthalmos (also called exophthalmus, exophthalmia, proptosis, or exorbitism) is a bulging of the eye anteriorly out of the orbit. Exophthalmos can be either bilateral (as is often seen in Graves' disease) or unilateral (as is often seen in an orbital tumor). Complete or partial dislocation from the orbit is also possible from trauma or ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_measuring_instruments

    An X-ray tube, a sample scattering the X-rays and a photographic plate to detect them. This constellation forms the scattering instrument used by X-ray crystallography for investigating crystal structures of samples. Amorphous solids lack a distinct pattern and are identifiable thereby.

    Magnetic resonance imaging alias Nuclear magnetic resonance : high strength (0.15 to 1.5 teslas) [4] are used to excite protons that produce the record results (like CT scan). It can show particular tissues more clearly than CT.; [4] video link: Linear accelerator: used in radiotherapy for cancer: Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_optical_imaging

    Medical optical imaging is the use of light as an investigational imaging technique for medical applications, pioneered by American Physical Chemist Britton Chance. Examples include optical microscopy , spectroscopy , endoscopy , scanning laser ophthalmoscopy , laser Doppler imaging , optical coherence tomography , and transdermal optical imaging .

  8. Ocular tonometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocular_tonometry

    The transducer is surrounded by an outer ring that flattens the adjacent cornea reducing its influence on measurement. Because the device touches the cornea, topical anesthetic eye drops are used to numb the eye but as with non-contact tonometry, these devices are often used in children and non-cooperative patients because of their portability ...

  9. X-ray detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray_detector

    Fish bone pierced in the upper esophagus. Right image without contrast medium, left image during swallowing with contrast medium. To obtain an image with any type of image detector the part of the patient to be X-rayed is placed between the X-ray source and the image receptor to produce a shadow of the internal structure of that particular part of the body.
