Multidetector computed tomography urography (MDCTU) for diagnosing urothelial malignancy

E M Anderson et al. Clin Radiol. 2007 Apr.

Abstract

Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) is well established for the detection of stones and renal masses, but more recently MDCT urography (MDCTU) is becoming widely used for examination of the entire urinary tract aimed specifically for diagnosing urothelial lesions. Evidence is rapidly accumulating to support the use of MDCTU in this manner. Familiarity with the MDCTU signs of urothelial malignancy is a prerequisite for optimum radiological practice. This article provides a review of the appearances of transitional cell cancer in the upper urinary tract and bladder.
