    Author: Lackner K, Koischwitz D, Molitor B, Vogel J, Schmidt S.
    Journal: Rofo; 1984 Apr; 140(4):363-72. PubMed ID: 6425157.
    Abstract:
    One hundred and twelve renal masses, whose histology was confirmed at operation, as well as renal vein thrombosis and renal infiltration, were examined by urography, sonography, CT and angiography. In general the results showed good agreement. For the diagnosis of the type of tumour, its size, infiltration into the renal capsule, demonstration of regional lymph node metastases and infiltration into neighbouring organs and for the diagnosis of liver metastases, CT was superior to the other methods.
