5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of hypofractionated stereotactic LINAC radiotherapy with 10 fractions at 6 Gy per fraction at the 80% isodose for the planning target volume (PTV) in patients with uveal melanoma. Patients will be followed-up for 10 years after radiotherapy regarding local tumor control, visual acuity, secondary complications and survival.
