Combining contrast-enhanced ultrasound, CT perfusion and 99mTc-Sestamibi SPECT/CT to guide diagnosis in a case of solid renal tumour
Definitive, pre-operative differentiation of solid renal lesions by ultrasound, contrast-enhanced multiphasic CT or MRI examinations is often not possible. An increasing amount of literature indicates the added value of 99m Tc-Sestamibi SPECT/CT, CT perfusion and contrast-enhanced ultrasound in the...

Tc-Sestamibi SPECT/CT, CT perfusion and contrast-enhanced ultrasound in the pre-operative characterisation of solid renal tumours. This case report presents the diagnostic approach of a solid renal tumour that turned out to be a hybrid oncocytic chromophobe tumour in a patient with Stage 3 renal failure by combining the three aforementioned modern examination techniques. |
