Abstract

The authors discuss their experience regarding the three-dimensional reconstruction of the echographic image, firstly of an orbital angioma and secondly, of a malignant choroidal melanoma. Of the latter, they calculate the volume and the total external surface. Reference is also made to data regarding reproducibility, the errors of reconstruction methodology and volume calculation. However, it is more reliable than the commonly used echographic procedures.
