Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Kidney Cancer,d high-field MR imaging examination can simultaneously detect and characterize a renal neoplasm. Multiphasic post-contrast imaging can generate MRA/MRV/MRU data sets with which, after post-processing, the radiologist can characterize the renal vasculature and stage the tumor. Magnetic resonance imag

Angiography in Kidney Cancer,dern era. This is partly due to the changing presentation of renal tumors; most are now identified at an early stage, and renal arteriography is insensitive when compared with the cross-sectional modalities for evaluation of small renal masses. Arteriography is now seldom used for diagnosis. For sta

Solid or complex cystic lesions are best characterized by CT or MR imaging. These crosssectional modalities are also indispensable in t

The techniques for high-quality CT and MR imaging have been reviewed and their role in the characterization of cystic renal masses has been summarized. The Bosniak renal cyst classification has proven helpful in classifying renal cy

Collecting Duct Carcinoma,The usual histologic pattern is that of a tubular or tubulopapillary carcinoma with a desmoplastic stroma. Imaging features suggestive of this diagnosis include a medullary origin and an infiltrative growth pattern. This type of cancer is associated with an extremely poor prognosis. At presentation

The small renal neoplasms that contain fat or reside within the collecting system of the kidney are easily identified and managed appropriately. The remainder of e
