Abstract
The study was undertaken to evaluate the efficiency of photodynamic therapy of pigmented choroid and epibulbar melanoma, by using the agent Photosense. Pigmented choroid and epibulbar melanoma were identified in 50 rabbit eyes. After intravenous injection of Photosense, 0.7 mg/kg, the tumors were irradiated at 675 nm with an argon-pumped dye laser at 150 J/cm2. Photodynamic therapy with Photosense may be effective in treating pigmented choroid and epibulbar melanomas.Entities:
