Overview
Other diagnostic studies for retinoblastoma include fluorescein angiography
Other Diagnostic Studies
Fluorescein angiography
This imaging study can be used to differentiate retinoblastoma from other lesions.[1]
- Fluorescein angiography is particularly helpful in differentiating the tumor from the advanced form of Coats’s disease.
- Imaging findings associated with the diagnosis of retinoblastoma include:
Electroretinogram
Electroretinogram may be helpful in treatment monitoring of retinoblastoma. It may be used for:[2]
- Monitoring retinal function during treatment
- obtaining information about visual potential in preverbal children
- Observing the effect of treatment toxicity on retinal function
