Radiologic evaluation of a renal mass involves two phases. Initial detection of the mass depends on high-quality excretory urography. Once detected, a number of diagnostic modalities are available to further evaluate the mass. The studies needed for any given mass can be kept limited, and, with careful use of the scheme presented, a diagnosis can be made with minimal invasiveness and expense.
