Background: Ultrasonographic measurement of optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) has been proposed as a non-invasive, bedside method to detect raised intracranial pressure (ICP) in various clinical settings. We aimed to correlate the ONSD obtained by ultrasonography (USG) with the ONSD obtained by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and to find its measurement accuracy.
Methodology: A prospective double-blind study was carried out by performing ocular ultrasounds on 32 patients with clinical features of intracranial hypertension.

The patient initially presented with back pain, normal muscle strength across all myotomes, and imaging that showed no canal stenosis or retropulsion fragments.
