Optic nerve sheath diameter measurement: a means of detecting increased intracranial pressure in pseudotumor cerebri patients.

According to our study, the ONSD method and the ONSD/ETD and ONSD/OTD indices are reliable diagnostic markers for PTC. These noninvasive techniques may be useful in monitoring the invasive intracranial catheter and have wide potential clinical applications in district hospitals, emergency departments and intensive care units.
