This second edition has been completely revised to incorporate the latest advances in the field of clinical ocular oncology. The text provides an overview of the biology, diagnosis, and multi-modality treatment of eyelid, conjunctival, intraocular and orbital tumours and conditions that simulate tumours. It reviews recent discoveries on the molecular biology of ocular tumours and highlights the clinical ramifications of these findings, particularly in the areas of prognosis and genetic testing. Included are detailed discussions of the role and limitations of magnetic resonance imaging, extensive new data on intraocular tumour management, and recommendations on the optimal use of radiation treatments for retinoblastoma and melanoma.
