Use of OCT Angiography in Choroidal Melanocytic Tumors

Figure 3

(a) Color fundus photography shows juxtapapillary choroidal melanoma (this tumor has documented progression); marked area corresponds to OCTA images. (b) OCTA superficial 3 × 3 mm layer shows a normal vasculature. (c) OCTA choriocapillaris 3 × 3 mm layer shows a hyporeflective plexus, with thick disorganized vessels. We hypothesize that marked area could correspond to a vascular network formed by several vascular loops. This pattern is associated with aggressive choroidal melanomas. (d) OCTA B map shows a high flux over the inner face of the tumor.
