Ultrasound is the most useful adjunctive technique. While enucleation has been the mainstay of therapeutic intervention, alternative therapies \u2013 especially different types of irradiation \u2013 offer hope for tumor control and vision preservation. The Collaborative Ocular Melanoma Study, a multicenter national trial, is designed to provide long-term data on the natural history as well as therapeutic intervention.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Malignant melanoma of the uveal tract can be diagnosed clinically with more confidence than ever before.
