Optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) The anatomy of the optic nerve sheath : The intraorbital section of the optic nerve extends from the globe‚ where it inserts medially‚ to the optic canal located in the lesser wing of the sphenoid bone. It is encased by a meningeal sheath consisting of dura mater‚ arachnoid mater and pia mater. Cerebrospinal fluid is contained in the trabeculated subarachnoid space and is continuously and slowly filtered. As a result the optic nerve sheath is in direct

Force‚ Motion‚ Newton’s Laws‚ Momentum‚ and Impulse What is force? Force is a push or pull upon an object resulting from the object’s interaction with another object. There are two types of force‚ contact forces‚ and forces resulting from action-at-a-distance. A contact force can be frictional forces‚ normal forces‚ applied forces‚ and air resistant forces. The formula for contact force is F = ma. This type of force occurs when two objects are contacting each other physically. If you kick a ball

Recent advances in technology permit measurement of characteristics of the nerve fibres that make up the optic nerve. One of these is SD-OCT(Fig2)‚ a non contact‚ non-invasive method that enables physicians to obtain in vivo‚ high resolution (upto 5 microns) cross-sectional images of the retina. It is based on principle of low-coherence interferometry(Fig 3). By imaging a 3D cube of data it allows a detailed evaluation of the peripapillary area.
