International validation of a staging system for ciliary body and choroidal melanomas using estimated tumour volume
This large international validation study demonstrates that the new volume-based classification provides more accurate prognostic stratification for choroidal and ciliary body melanoma. Its improved risk discrimination, using readily available clinical measurements, supports its applicability in clinical practice and potential utility for guiding follow-up and resource allocation.
