title: [Some correlations between ultrasonographic and histopathologic findings in malignant melanoma of the choroid (author's transl)].

Tumors with hemorrhages and/or necrosis showed a lower reflectivity than those with a higher amount of connection tissue. B-scan ultrasonography was found to be reliable for the measurement of the extent of the tumor in all three dimensions.
