Abstract
A short fractionation schedule of 20 Gy in 5 fractions is a well-tolerated treatment that effectively preserves vision and gains local tumor control for many patients with choroidal metastases. This hypofractionated approach would help reduce the burden of a longer treatment course in this palliative patient population.
