OBJECTIVE:To investigate the diagnostic meaning of MRI in intraocular tumors. METHODS:Forty-six cases of confirmed intraocular tumors,including choroidal melanoma(20 cases),retinoblastoma(18 cases),Coats disease(6 cases)and choroidal hemangioma(2 cases),were studied with MRI and compared with ultrasonography and CT. RESULTS:In making discoveries about intraocular tumors,there were no sighificant difference between MRI and B-ultrasonography or CT （P＞0.03， chi;2=1.0716）while there were highly statistic sighificance in dediding characters and position （P＜0.01，deceding character  chi;2=29.8314，position chi;2=13.659）of them. CONCLUSION:Among the examinations to find out about the position,character and secondary pathological insults of in traocular tumors MRI might be more available than CT and ultrasonography. （Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1997,13:93-95 ）
