  • Title: [Ultrasonic diagnosis of space-occupying lesions of the kidney (author's transl)].
    Author: Lutz H, Lorenz D, Petzoldt R.
    Journal: Dtsch Med Wochenschr; 1976 Oct 01; 101(40):1443-7. PubMed ID: 964137.
    Abstract:
    In 140 patients who were suspected of having space-occupying lesions of the kidney the ultrasound findings were analysed. There were no false negative results. Out of 4 false positives two could be explained by nontumourous focal renal disease. In a further 10 cases a space-occupying lesion could not be excluded with certainty on the grounds of the ultrasound investigation alone. Out of a total of 96 space-occupying lesions (48 solid tumours, 48 cystic processes) 83 were correctly diagnosed sonographically.
