The 14th Congress of SIDUO, held in Tokyo from October 26 to
October 30, 1992, was the first congress meeting to be held in Asia
in the 30-year history of SIDUO. The congress was organized by the
Department of Oph- thalmology, St. Marianna University School of
Medicine, with the support of the Japanese Ophthalmological
Society, the Japan Society of Ultrasonics in Medicine and the Japan
Society of Ophthalmologists. The organizing committee consisted of
the following members. Congress President: Sadanao Tane, M. D.
(Professor and Chairman, St. Marianna University School of
Medicine) Vice-presidents: Atsushi Sawada, M. D. (Professor and
Chairman, Miyazaki Medical College) Masayasu Ito, Ph. D. (Tokyo
University of Agriculture and Technology) Secretary General: Yasuo
Sugata, M. D. (Tokyo Metropolitan Komagome Hospital) Finance
Committee: Koji Ohashi, M. D. (Assistant Professor, St. Marianna
University School of Medicine) Akira Komatsu, M. D. (Assistant
Professor, St. Marianna University School of Medicine) Toshio
Kaneko, M. D. (Assistant Professor, St. Marianna University School
of Medicine) Publicity and Exhibition Committee: Hideyuki Hayashi,
M. D. (Assistant Professor, School of Medicine, Fukuoka University)
Akihiro Kaneko, M. D. (National Cancer Center) The Honorary
Presidents were Yukio Yamamoto, M. D. (Tokyo Tama Geriatrics
Hospital) and Yasuo Uemura, M. D. (Professor Emeritus, Keio
University) . The opening ceremony began with the Francois Memorial
Lecture given by Professor Peter Till (Standardized Echography:
Quantitative Analysis of XlI Tissue Backscatter - A Major Source of
Information for Tissue Diagnoses).
The second E. C. Workshop on Ultrasonic Tissue Characterization was
organized for the assessment of research goals and plans as the
basis to a grant proposal for a "Concerted Action" which will be
forwarded to the European Commission. It should, therefore, not
only be considered as a work in progress exhibition which succeeded
the former activities within the E. C. (Inventory on Tissue
Characterization in Europe and first Workshop). The Steering Group
invited a 1 imited group of Institutes to send its group leader and
a research fel low in the entitled field, who should expose the
overall research program, as wei 1 as the more specific work on
tissue characterization by RF signal analysis and spectroscopy. The
ultimate goal of the Workshop has been the formulation of schemes
of interaction among the Institutes and individuals and the
definition of cooperative research programs. The remainder of the
groups and some of the groups present are working in the field of
analysis and processing of cl inical A- and B-mode echograms (i. e.
video signals). Because this work is more closely related to the cl
inical diagnostics it was decided that for that reason no
preparatory workshop was needed. In the final proposal for the
Concerted Action this work wi 1 1 get ample attention. Although not
many clinicians were present, their positive interest in the
sophisticated analysis techniques and their contribution to the dis
cussions again have been a most valuable and stimulating
experience."
Forty-eight eyes with massive periretinal proliferation were
examined with ultrasonography. In addition to the triangular
retinal detachment T-sign was indicative of severe MPP. And
irregular thickening and bending of the retina were observed on
ultrasonography in eyes with MPP. The detached retina was immobile
in all eyes. Preoperative ultrasonographic findings did not prove
the value on the assessment of operative prognosis. REFERENCES
