Advancements in machine learning and deep learning have the potential to revolutionize the diagnosis of melanocytic choroidal tumors, including uveal melanoma, a potentially life-threatening eye cancer. Traditional machine learning methods rely heavi...
PURPOSE: To evaluate ChatGPT's ability to analyze comprehensive case descriptions of patients with uveal melanoma and provide recommendations for the most appropriate management.
BACKGROUND: Although there has been some progress in the treatment of primary uveal melanoma (UVM), distant metastasis remains the leading cause of death in patients. Monitoring, staging, and treatment of metastatic disease have not yet reached conse...
Uveal melanoma (UM) patients face a significant risk of distant metastasis, closely tied to a poor prognosis. Despite this, there is a dearth of research utilizing big data to predict UM distant metastasis. This study leveraged machine learning metho...
AIMS: Uveal melanoma has a high propensity to metastasize. Prognosis is associated with specific driver mutations and copy number variations, and these can only be obtained after genetic testing. In this study we evaluated the efficacy of patient out...
BACKGROUND: Reliable differentiation of uveal melanoma and choroidal nevi is crucial to guide appropriate treatment, preventing unnecessary procedures for benign lesions and ensuring timely treatment for potentially malignant cases. The purpose of th...

OBJECTIVE: Uveal melanoma is the most common intraocular malignancy in adults. Current screening and triaging methods for melanocytic choroidal tumours face inherent limitations, particularly in regions with limited access to specialized ocular oncol...
BACKGROUND: Increasing evidence suggests a correlation between glycosylation and the onset of cancer. However, the clinical relevance of glycosylation-related genes (GRGs) in uveal melanoma (UM) is yet to be fully understood. This study aimed to shed...
