Abstract

Ultrasound is a powerful tool in ophthalmology with a wide range of physical effects that can interact with biological tissue. This ranges from low-intensity linear transducers for diagnosis to high-intensity pulsed or continuous focused ultrasound for therapy. Designing devices for ophthalmological applications requires creating fine focal spots, minimizing heating, and accounting for eye movements. Ultrasound is essential for ophthalmologists to provide accurate diagnosis and quantitative information on tissue composition and blood flow. Ultrasound has revolutionized cataract surgery, making it less invasive and in an outpatient basis, while enhancing the safety and predictability of glaucoma treatment using high-intensity focused ultrasound. The article aims to review the complex and multifaceted bioeffects of ultrasound used in ophthalmology, and its current and future applications of ultrasound in ophthalmology, notably regarding cavitation-mediated drug delivery.

超声波在眼科中的应用:综述
在眼科领域,超声波是一种强大的工具,可与生物组织产生广泛的物理效应。从用于诊断的低强度线性换能器到用于治疗的高强度脉冲或连续聚焦超声波,不一而足。设计用于眼科的设备需要创建精细的聚焦点、最大限度地减少加热并考虑眼球运动。超声波对于眼科医生提供准确诊断以及组织成分和血流的定量信息至关重要。超声波为白内障手术带来了革命性的变化,使手术创伤更小,而且无需门诊,同时利用高强度聚焦超声波提高了青光眼治疗的安全性和可预测性。这篇文章旨在回顾超声波在眼科中应用的复杂和多方面的生物效应,以及超声波在眼科中的当前和未来应用,特别是空化介导的药物输送。

期刊介绍: IRBM is the journal of the AGBM (Alliance for engineering in Biology an Medicine / Alliance pour le génie biologique et médical) and the SFGBM (BioMedical Engineering French Society / Société française de génie biologique médical) and the AFIB (French Association of Biomedical Engineers / Association française des ingénieurs biomédicaux). As a vehicle of information and knowledge in the field of biomedical technologies, IRBM is devoted to fundamental as well as clinical research. Biomedical engineering and use of new technologies are the cornerstones of IRBM, providing authors and users with the latest information. Its six issues per year propose reviews (state-of-the-art and current knowledge), original articles directed at fundamental research and articles focusing on biomedical engineering. All articles are submitted to peer reviewers acting as guarantors for IRBM''s scientific and medical content. The field covered by IRBM includes all the discipline of Biomedical engineering. Thereby, the type of papers published include those that cover the technological and methodological development in: -Physiological and Biological Signal processing (EEG, MEG, ECG…)- Medical Image processing- Biomechanics- Biomaterials- Medical Physics- Biophysics- Physiological and Biological Sensors- Information technologies in healthcare- Disability research- Computational physiology- …
