Inherited cystic diseases of the kidney

P L Choyke. Radiol Clin North Am. 1996 Sep.

Abstract

The inherited cystic diseases of the kidney represent a diverse group of diseases. Recent advantages in molecular medicine have greatly enhanced the presymptomatic detection of these entities. To data, however, genetic tests cannot determine the severity of the disease or prevent complications. Therefore, imaging will continue to play a major role in the screening and management of these complex diseases.
