Abstract

Angiography, computed tomography and ultrasonography were compared with respect to staging of renal carcinoma in 41 patients with 46 renal tumours. Angiography and ultrasonography gave correct staging in 52% and 48%, respectively, while correct staging was achieved with computed tomography in 80% of the tumours.
