Abstract

Current diagnosis of pigmented choroidal tumours is based on ophthalmoscopic evaluation, on standard fluorescein angiography and standardized A-scan echography1,2. Modern indocyanine green (ICG) angiography using high resolution digital imaging procedures, has to a great extent overcome the limits of fluorescein angiography in imaging of the choroidal vasculature3–7.
