  • Title: Computed tomography of the kidney.
    Author: Sagel SS, Stanley RJ, Levitt RG, Geisse G.
    Journal: Radiology; 1977 Aug; 124(2):359-70. PubMed ID: 327511.
    Abstract:
    Computed tomography is an extremely accurate method of obtaining more definitive diagnostic information about a renal mass discovered on a urogram. Benign renal cysts are readily distinguished from solid renal neoplasms, and CT is often valuable in characterizing possible juxtarenal masses. The cause of a nonfunctioning kidney(s) on a urogram can often be discerned, and hydronephrosis is easily detected.
