Imaging Recommendations for Diagnosis, Staging, and Management of Renal Tumors

Recommendations for imaging-based diagnosis and management of renal angiomyolipoma associated with tuberous sclerosis complex

Renal angiomyolipomas are found in up to 80% of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) patients. Although these tumours are usually asymptomatic, lesions >3 cm in diameter are prone to bleeding and up to 10% of TSC patients may experience a massive and potentially fatal retroperitoneal haemorrhage. Diagnosis can be complicated because of the initial lack of symptoms and the fat-poor content of atypic...

MR imaging in staging of bone tumors

For staging of bone tumors, TNM and Enneking's systems are used with some differences. Magnetic resonance imaging is particularly useful for defining the extent of high-grade tumors, including transcortical and intertrabecular infiltration and periosteal extension. The concepts of compartment and curative surgical margins are important for bone tumor staging.

Efficacy of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging in the diagnosis and staging of endometrial tumors.

PURPOSE The goal of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in differentiating between benign and malignant endometrial lesions and determinining tumor grade. It also aimed to determine the contribution of the DWI to the diagnosis by detection of the myometrial invasion depth in malignant lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS The lesions were classified as benign ...
