[Computed tomography in the Multidisciplinary Science and Technology Complex "Eye Microsurgery"].

The paper is devoted to analysis of the results of CT in 1000 patients examined in the Multibranch Research and Technology Complex "Eye Microsurgery". The specific feature of CT in this institution is that 52% of all investigations of ophthalmological patients fall to the share of eyeball abnormality and 40%--to a study of the other parts of the organ of vision. CT indications are extended for low tension glaucoma, complicated high myopia, and for monitoring the position of microsurgical implants. The use of CT in such a highly specialized medical institution as the MRTC "Eye Microsurgery" is considered indispensable.

[Computerized tomography of the orbit and optic nerve canals in optic nerve atrophy of diverse etiology].

Computerized tomography has been used to examine 10 patients with cranial injuries aftereffects presenting as optic nerve atrophies (Group 1), 24 patients with nontraumatic optic nerve atrophies (Group 2), and 89 subjects without optic nerve abnormalities. Density asymmetry in the projection of the optic nerve canal cranial openings has been the computerized tomography sign that indicated the involvement of the optic nerve in Group 1 patients. Increased pneumatization of the main bone sinus has been detected 2 times more frequently in Group 2 patients.
