PURPOSE: To evaluate the clinical performance of ultra-widefield swept-source optical coherence tomography (UWF-OCT) in the assessment of choroidal tumors and to compare it with ultrasonography (US), spectral-domain (SD)-OCT, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
DESIGN: Retrospective diagnostic comparison.
SUBJECTS: Thirty-nine eyes from 39 patients diagnosed with choroidal tumors at a single tertiary referral center.
METHODS: This retrospective diagnostic comparison evaluated patients diagnosed with choroidal tumors at a single tertiary referral center between January 2023 and August 2025. All patients underwent UWF-OCT imaging at diagnosis. Tumor measurements obtained with UWF-OCT were compared with US, SD-OCT, and MRI. Comparative analysis among imaging modalities and predictors affecting UWF-OCT applicability was performed.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Tumor thickness (mm) and largest basal diameter (LBD, mm) measurements, and complete measurability rate across different tumor size categories.
RESULTS: Thirty-nine eyes from 39 patients (mean age 59.2 ± 16.9 years) were analyzed, including 27 choroidal melanomas (69.2%), 5 metastatic tumors (12.8%), 4 hemangiomas (10.3%), 2 osteomas (5.1%), and 1 (2.6%) indeterminate choroidal melanocytic lesion. UWF-OCT successfully measured both tumor thickness and largest basal diameter (LBD) in 100% (31/31) of small and medium choroidal tumors, substantially outperforming SD-OCT (complete measurement achieved in 63.6% of small tumors, and 0% of medium or large tumors). UWF-OCT measurements were systematically smaller than ultrasonography (thickness: -32.3%, P < .01; LBD: -11.1%, P < .01) and MRI (thickness: -29.2%, P < .01). Mushroom-shaped tumor morphology was the strongest negative predictor of UWF-OCT quality (OR = 0.015, 95% CI 0.001-0.196, P < .01). UWF-OCT's complete measurability was limited in large tumors (12.5%, 1/8).
CONCLUSIONS: UWF-OCT provides precise, noninvasive, single-scan assessment of small-to-medium choroidal tumors with detailed structural visualization. It may be particularly useful for dome-shaped tumors, while multimodal imaging with US and MRI remains optimal for complex morphologies. Overall, UWF-OCT represents a valuable tool for diagnosis and treatment planning, with potential utility for longitudinal follow-up in choroidal tumor management.
