title: [Advantages of digital indocyanine green angiography for diagnosing choroidal tumors].
abstract: Indocyanine green angiography (ICG) is a well-known ancillary test for evaluation of choroidal tumors. The authors review the different images seen in choroidal nevus, melanoma, metastasis, hemangioma, osteoma, and vortex vein varix. ICG appears to be useful for the diagnosis of non pigmented choroidal tumors. In addition, ICG provides good information on the limits of pigmented tumors, particularly for the follow-up of a growing tumor and the choice of treatment.
