E 38: Small Choroidal Melanomas: Advances in Laser with Dr. Tim Murray

A Cure in Sight is joined by Dr. Tim Murray, an ocular oncologist with over 30 years in the field of treating primary tumors (eye tumors) of ocular melanoma to discuss: Small Choroidal Melanoma: Advances in treatment with laser. Timothy G. Murray, MD, MBA is currently the Founding Director/CEO of Ocular Oncology and Retina of Miami Florida. Dr. Murray’s early academic career was focused on the development of an integrated Ocular Oncology service beginning at the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center. In 2012, Dr. Murray founded the Ocular Oncology and Retina Center in Miami, Florida, and has had 10 years in private practice. Dr. Murray continues as Tenured Professor Emeritus in Ophthalmology and Radiation Oncology with the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute/Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center. Dr. Murray’s focus on founding the private Ocular Oncology and Retina Center was related to his ongoing pursuit of excellence in clinical care particularly targeted on advanced imaging and treatment technologies. Dr. Murray’s Ocular Oncology and Retina Center continues to provide International, National and Regional care for patients with life- and sight-threatening complex eye disease. His interview is chalk full of insights and updates in research in the field; referencing a few key studies presented at the 2022 ISOO conference this summer about the importance of early detection of eye melanomas, early and effective treatment of those melanomas, yielding better prognosis for patients, regardless of their genetic expression. He shares insights for what type of comprehensive eye exams are most important for detection, and concludes the conversation by breaking down the laser treatment therapy option for small melanomas. The pros and cons are explored, as well as the types of tumors best suited for this emerging eye treatment. LIST OF OCULAR ONCOLOGISTS DR. MURRAY WOULD REFER TO ASIDE FROM HIMSELF coming soon!
