Imaging techniques in the diagnosis of choroiditis in a patient with acquired immune deficiency syndrome

Patients with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) are at high risk o f developing opportunistic ocular infections. A recently recognized finding in this category is choroiditis. We describe a patient with AIDS in whom c horoiditis was suspected at an early stage of the disease, on the basis of fluorescein angiography, computerized tomography, and magnetic resonance im aging findings. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment may prolong the surviv al of these patients.
