Evaluation of Cystic and Solid Renal Lesions with Contrast-EnhancedUltrasound: A Retrospective Study

摘要

PurposeRenal lesions are frequent random findings on CT, MRI, andconventional ultrasound. Since they are usually found accidentally, therespective examinations have not been performed optimally to provide aconclusive diagnosis, making additional multiphase contrast-enhancedexaminations necessary. The aim of the study is to correlate CEUS findings withthe final diagnosis and to determine whether it is a suitable method for theconclusive characterization of undetermined renal lesions.
