By the same token the author wishes to acknowledge the tremendous merits of two electronic engineers who made the development and continuous perfection of Instrumentation for Standardized Echography possible through their enormous knowledge of, and skills in, the field of diagnostic ultrasound, and through their readiness and capability to accept and accommodate clinical necessities:

 (1) Ing. Bernhard of Kretztechnik (Zipf, Austria);  with his help the Kretz 7000 instrument of the II. Eye Department of the University in Vienna (Austria) was modified to become the prototype for all subsequent standardized A-scan instruments by 1964, and with his help the author developed the first commercially available immersion tomograph Kretztechnik 7900 S (combined standardized A-scan and B-scan) in 1966 as well as the Kretz 7200 MA by 1970 (the only standardized A-scan unit available throughout the 1970's and early 1980's).

(2) Jean Abascal of Biophysic Medical, later of Biovision International [BVI] (all in Clermont-Ferrand, France), and lastly of Quantel Medical (Bozeman, MT, USA and Clermont-Fd / Paris, France); together with Jean Abascal the author developed the Ophthascan S in the 1980's, the Mini-A-scan in the  late 1980's, the B-scan S in the late 1990's, and most recently, its successor, the Cine-scan S (all with progressively increasing digital capabilities and more numerous and powerful software programs).

 

The results of a collaborative international melanoma and retinoblastoma studies undertaken for publication during the International Congress of Ophthalmology in San Francisco in 1982 [93] demonstrate the effectiveness of Standardized Echography performed by a great number of echographers worldwide (all had been trained at the Universities of Iowa, USA or Vienna, Austria):

The diagnosis of malignant melanomas of the choroid and ciliary body accomplished with Standardized Echography by a total of 92 different examiners () in 33 different centers worldwide in a total of 1629 histological confirmed cases carried the unique sensitivity of 99% and a specificity of 97.9%.

Likewise the diagnosis of retinoblastomas achieved by 56 different echographers in 23 different centers worldwide in a total of 319 histological proven cases carried a sensitivity of 98.1% and a specificity of 97.8%.

 

Since the mid 1970's measurements of the optic nerve [64, 66, 69, 70, 150] and the extraocular muscles [63, 64, 69, 70, 74] were added to the armamentarium of Standardized Echography and were perfected during the following years [75, 87, 93, 94, 97, 104, 150]. The usage of the "30 degree test" [86, 87, 150] to distinguish between solid and fluid optic nerve sheath widening and the even more important technique of "exercising " the optic nerve to distinguish between intracranial hypertension and optic nerve compression [150, 173, 174, 175] were well accepted. Most reliable diagnoses of diseases affecting the optic nerve (e.g., gliomas, meningiomas, AION, PION, optic neuritis, optic atrophy, papilledema vs. dry optic nerve swelling, intracranial hypertension, compressive optic neuropathy) [150], and of diseases affecting any of the 6 extraocular muscles (e.g., Graves orbitopathy, orbital myositis, hyperemia, hematomas, neoplasms [94, 97, 101, 104, 131, 155, 167, 176, 197, 200] were added to the widening scope of useful diagnostic application of Standardized Echography.

The following case illustrates the applicability and great sensitivity and accuracy of the acoustic differential criteria that have evolved over the years for each of these ocular and orbital conditions and which can reliably be applied because they are based on the optimal and standardized instrument parameters and techniques of Standardized Echography:

A 53-year old white male patient had been referred to the Echography Service in the Eye Department at the University Hospitals in Iowa City in 1990 with the (clinical and CT-scan) diagnosis of Graves' orbitopathy. He had undergone a previous ptosis operation OS, which was only temporally effective. The echograms obtained with a standardized Ascan device (Mini-A-scan) set at Tissue Sensitivity indicated medium to low reflectivity, internal vascularity and a large angle kappa of several tumors located within the sheaths of extraocular muscles in both orbits of this patient (Fig.1). On the basis of these criteria the author made the diagnosis of metastatic carcinoid, which was later confirmed by histopathology.

This diagnosis was made without having experienced this extremely rare kind of tumor within the sheaths of an extraocular muscle before, on the following three accounts: (1) the echographic findings in one case of carcinoid metastatic to the right lacrimal fossa of a 70-year old white female experienced 10 years earlier; her tumor echograms had shown an angle kappa of identical size, but a slightly higher internal reflectivity [92]. (2) The knowledge that tumors located within the sheaths of the extraocular muscles present with a slightly but clearly lower reflectivity than their counterparts located within orbital fat tissues. (3) That no other tumor tissue was known to produce the echographic features recorded in this male patient.

During phase II Standardized Echography evolved into the most potent, effective, reliable, accurate and diversified ultrasonographic method in ophthalmology offering the best results in detection, localization, measurement and differentiation of intraocular, orbital and periorbital lesions. This method allows, for instance, the differentiation of more than 75 intraocular, and of more than 65 orbital and periorbital, lesions. For many of these differential diagnoses Standardized Echography provides a sensitivity as well as specificity ranging above 95%, in several instances close to 100%.

 

 

3.      Phase III

 

Since the mid 1990's a digital revolution began to drastically change the situation of Standardized Echography. Though some tasks of Standardized Echography always have been easy and quick, many of the differential diagnoses which made this method so superior to other echographic approaches required much time, skills and experience on the part of the echographers. Likewise the training for Standardized Echography was lengthy and training opportunities were lacking. This situation slowed the spread of this unique method.

With the advent of digitization and the development of powerful software programs the situation of Standardized Echography has changed drastically allowing for quick, easy, but still more reliable, more objective and more accurate diagnoses to be accomplished by less trained and less experienced echographers. This trend is just starting for Standardized Echography and promises a bright future for this diagnostic method.

A good example for this development is presented by the author in another contribution to SIDUO XVIII (see Ossoinig KC: "Computer-assisted Echographic Tissue Diagnoses: differentiation between retinal and membranous surfaces"): The A1 sign described there had been found to be the single most reliable and accurate acoustic criterium for differentiating retinal detachments from dense fibrovascular membranes. It's application was fairly quick for a well trained and skilled echographer. With new software already contained in the software package 2000 for the B-scan S instrument, the A1 evaluation has become so quick and easy that untrained participants in a recent workshop on Standardized Echography accomplished the correct diagnosis of a retinal detachment without exception within 5 to 15 seconds.

Other  features of the software package 2000 are: an automatic setting of the Tissue Sensitivity, automatic calculations and digital readouts of the reflectivity and sound absorption of tumor tissues. For the first time this sound absorption can be measured and displayed in db/ mm tissue by simply setting two electronic gates at both opposite surface signals of the tissue or marking any section within the tissue echogram. The associated angle kappa is measured and displayed digitally in degrees and can be displayed schematically (Fig. 2).

This rapidly developing user-friendly automation of differential diagnoses and measurements has begun to rejuvenate Standardized Echography preparing it for a much wider usage in the years to come.

5.      Conclusion

 

This paper starts with the definition of the term "Standardized Echography" (Introduction). The history of the origin of Standardized Echography in early 1963, its successes and worldwide expansion and its radical changes following the digital revolution, which started in the early 1990 and continue with increasing speed at the present, are narrated in Chapter 1 (Historical Background). Chapters 2-4 describe the special characteristics of each of the three stages in the evolution of Standardized Echography. 

In the four decades of its existence, Standardized Echography has become the most potent and effective echographic method. Powerful software programs developed during the past few years and being added continuously begin to turn this sophisticated method into a quick and easy and ever so more reliable, objective and accurate diagnostic tool in ophthalmology, which will require much less training and experience than in the past.
