Abstract

The ultrasonographic findings in 39 cases of malignant melanoma of the choroid has been correlated with histopathological results. Tumors with hemorrhages and/or necrosis showed a lower reflectivity than those with a higher amount of connection tissue. B-scan ultrasonography was found to be reliable for the measurement of the extent of the tumor in all three dimensions.
