  • Look Inside

We evaluated five cases of malignant uveal melanoma with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In all the eyes, the tumor mass appeared very hyperintense with sharp contrast to the vitre-ous in T1-weighted images. In 4 eyes, the tumorwas hypointense ou T2-weighted images. His-topathologically, the observed signal intensity of T2 -weighted images was related to the amount of melanin in the tumor. It was easy to distinguish the associated retinal detachment from the tumor mass on MR imaging. Hemorrhage and cystic necrosis in the tumor could also be detected. It was not pos-sible to identify invasion of the tumor into the anterior chamber angle, the sclera or the extrascler-al tissue on MR images. We advocate combined T1-and T2-weighted MRI images in the diagnosis of malinant melanoma of the uveal tissue.
