AIM To document the ultrasound biomicroscopic (UBM) findings in Chinese patients with iridocorneal endothelial (ICE) syndrome. METHODS 21 patients with ICE syndrome and 15 normal subjects underwent UBM. UBM findings of anterior segment were compared between normal subjects and three clinical types of ICE syndrome: progressive iris atrophy (PIA), Chandler's syndrome (CS), and Cogan-Reese syndr...

AIM To investigate the correlation between clinical, high frequency ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) and, where possible, histological findings in cases of congenital corneal opacification presenting to the departments of ophthalmology, Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children, London, and the Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, Canada. METHOD 22 eyes of 13 children (age range 3-225 days) wit...

OBJECTIVE To identify differences in anterior chamber anatomy among patients with asymmetric pigment dispersion syndrome and no other discernible cause for the asymmetry. METHODS Ultrasound biomicroscopy and A-scan biometry were performed on both eyes of 13 patients with asymmetric pigment dispersion syndrome without a known cause for asymmetric involvement. A radial perpendicular image in th...

Physiol Genomics 14: 3–15, 2003; 10.1152/physiolgenomics.00008.2003.—The ability to modify the mouse genome has yielded new insights into the genetic control of mammalian cardiovascular development. However, it is far less understood how genetic factors and their consequent structur...
