Which type of imaging can be used as a comparison for findings obtained from ocular ultrasound?

Fundus photography is the appropriate imaging modality for comparison with findings obtained from ocular ultrasound because it provides detailed photographic images of the internal structures of the eye, specifically the retina, optic nerve head, and blood vessels. By using fundus photography, clinicians can evaluate any abnormalities detected by ultrasound, such as retinal detachments, tumors, or other pathological changes, in a tangible and visual manner.

Additionally, fundus photography captures the anatomic details of the posterior segment of the eye directly, allowing for simultaneous assessment alongside the ultrasound findings. This sync between the two modalities enhances diagnostic accuracy, offering complementary information regarding the condition of ocular structures.

While CT scans, MRI, and X-rays may also serve diagnostic purposes in ophthalmic contexts, they are not specifically focused on the same details of the retinal and anterior segment structures as fundus photography is. CT and MRI are primarily used for detailed imaging of intraocular and extraocular masses and surrounding structures, whereas X-rays have limited utility in ophthalmology and do not provide views of soft tissues or vascular structures in the eye.
