Brief Summary
This prospective, non-therapeutic study will determine whether a novel imaging technique can identify presumptive tumour associated macrophages (TAMs) in patients with ocular tumours. The investigators will evaluate 5 groups:
- 1.Choroidal nevus
- 2.Choroidal indeterminate melanocytic lesion
- 3.Choroidal melanoma
- 4.Suspected metastatic tumour (ie, primary tumour elsewhere)
- 5.Locally treated ocular tumours

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Identification of macrophages
1 week
Study Arms (5)
Choroidal nevus
Requires distinction from melanoma through diagnostic testing (low-risk features)
Choroidal indeterminate melanocytic lesion
Requires diagnostic testing for identification and distinction from nevus and melanoma (high-risk features)
Choroidal melanoma
Requires confirmation of diagnosis and evaluation for potential metatstases
Suspected metastatic tumour
Requires identification of primary tumour (ie, primary tumour elsewhere)
Locally treated ocular tumour
Requires followup to evaluate response to treatment and potential change or repeat therapy
Interventions
Eligibility Criteria
Potential study subjects will be identified from within the circle of care of the attending physicians. Subjects must be 18 years of age or older, be able to understand the study protocol, and provide informed consent. They must be able to attend all three visits
You may qualify if:
- Any tentative clinical diagnosis of:
- Choroidal nevus (low-risk features):
- Choroidal indeterminate melanocytic lesion (high-risk features)
- Choroidal melanoma
- Suspected metastatic tumour (ie, primary tumour elsewhere)
- Locally treated ocular tumours
- Note that a patient can enroll in this study twice, once before treatment and once after, provided that at least one month has passed since initiation of treatment. This patient will count twice (ie, once in each of two study arms)
- Male and female age 18 years and older Ability to provide informed consent
You may not qualify if:
- Allergy to angiography dye
- Cases that do not meet the above criteria for tumor size will be ineligible to participate in the study.
- Patients not able to provide consent for the study.
- Patients with a poor view of the fundus due to cataract or vitreous hemorrhage.
- Patients \< 18 years of age. Any concurrent unrelated eye diagnosis
