title: Long-term results after low-dose ocular irradiation for choroidal hemangiomas.
abstract: Radiotherapy has become increasingly important for the treatment of complicated choroidal hemangiomas. In recent years, a broad spectrum of different radiotherapeutic options that either replace or complement the conventional therapeutic approach by photocoagulation has been recommended. This article reviews the various treatment modalities and their indications with a special focus on the long-term outcome of low-dose external beam irradiation.
