Imaging of Retinoblastoma

Journal Title: GUJARAT CANCER SOCIETY RESEARCH JOURNAL - Year 2013, Vol 15, Issue 1

Abstract

Even after multiple awareness programmes, retinoblastoma still presents late in developing country like India where major crowd is still uneducated. Most of the patients present at advanced stage when eye / vision preserving treatment has no role and enucleation becomes essential. In this pictorial study we have tried to show various features of retinoblastoma on imaging modalities with its complication and its differential diagnosis. We have also discussed role of imaging in post treatment patients. Imaging features of retinoblastoma may help doctors to diagnose retinoblastoma earlier thus help the patient to opt for eye/vision preservating treatment options.
