Summary
We tried to analyze quantitatively the movement of membrane-like lesions in the eye. We made the analyzing system and verified it in the specially prepared phantom. Mobility of a membrane in the phantom was strongly influenced by the surroundings. Afterwards some cases of membrane in the eye were analyzed. The results suggest strongly the necessity of standardization in kinetic ultrasonography. To get to the final goal further improvement is needed.
