Effectiveness of MR Urography in the Evaluation of Kidney which Failed to Opacify during Excretory Urography: Comparison with Ultrasonography
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of MR urography (MRU) with that of ultrasonography (US) in the evaluation of urinary tract when this failed to opacify during excretory urography (EXU). MATERIALS AND METHODS Twelve urinary tracts in 11 patients were studied. In each case, during EXU, the urinary system failed to opacify within one hour of the injection of c...
متن کاملEvaluation of renal masses detected by excretory urography: cost-effectiveness of sonography versus CT.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to compare the cost-effectiveness of sonography and CT for the evaluation of renal masses discovered at excretory urography. MATERIALS AND METHODS The records of 225 patients with a renal mass shown by urography who then had either sonography or CT within 3 months were reviewed retrospectively. The number, location, and size of lesions; initial and subs...
متن کاملDiagnostic value of combined static-excretory MR Urography in children with hydronephrosis
The aim of this study was to determine the feasibility, accuracy and diagnostic potential of combined static-excretory MR Urography in children with sonographically detected hydronephrosis. We prospectively evaluated 28 children (11 girls and 17 boys), mean age 8.3 years (range 2 months-16 years). Static-excretory MR Urography was performed in all cases. The results of MR Urography were compare...
متن کاملComputed tomography in diagnosis of abdominal masses in infancy and childhood. Comparison with excretory urography.
Computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen and pelvis was performed in 26 instances of suspected mass in 24 infants and children. The information obtained was compared to that of standard abdominal radiography and excretory urography (IVP). Results were analyzed prospectively. CT was able to detect and define masses more precisely than abdominal radiography and IVP. The information obtained by CT,...
متن کامل3D excretory MR urography: improved image quality with intravenous saline and diuretic administration.
PURPOSE To assess the effect of diuretic administration on the image quality of excretory magnetic resonance urography (MRU) obtained following intravenous hydration, and to determine whether intravenous hydration alone is sufficient to produce diagnostic quality studies of nondilated upper tracts. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 22 patients with nondilated upper tracts were evaluated with c...
