Multimodal imaging of suspicious choroidal neoplasms in a primary eye-care clinic.

Gurpinderjeet Kaur1, Scott A Anthony1.   

Abstract

Small suspicious choroidal neoplasms commonly present a diagnostic challenge in primary eye-care clinics, where they are most likely to present. Differentiating benign from malignant choroidal neoplasms is essential for facilitating early diagnosis and treatment, potentially decreasing the risk of metastasis and vision loss in some cases. The purpose of this review is to describe the clinical, spectral-domain optical coherence tomography and fundus autofluorescence features of suspicious choroidal neoplasms in a case series of patients presenting to a primary eye-care clinic at the Veterans Health Administration, Cleveland, Ohio, USA.
