Abstract:
PURPOSE:To determine the optical coherence tomographic images that are commonly observed in eyes with choroidal osteoma (choroidal ossification). METHODS:Three patients with choroidal osteoma were examined by optical coherence tomography. RESULTS:We found two optical coherence tomographic patterns in the eyes with choroidal osteoma. First, multiple tracks of high refractivity were present posterior to the tumor lesion. Second, thick and irregular plate-like, high-signal intensity areas were present in the choroid in the region of the tumor. CONCLUSIONS:Optical coherence tomography can be useful in the diagnosis of choroidal osteoma.
