Abstract
Sixty one cases of melanoma of the choroid have been treated conservatively in our Department over the last 9 years, using Cobalt 60 applicators. Analysis of these cases has shown that the tumours most susceptible to, and which react favourably to this treatment, are those of less than 11 mm diameter which are not in contact either with the macula or the optic nerve.
