Computed Tomography in Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma
Seminars in Ultrasound, CT, and MRI, 07/14/09
Griffin N et al. - Recent developments in chemotherapy have resulted in several new drug treatments for metastatic renal cell carcinoma. These therapies have shown improved progression-free survival and are applicable to many more patients than the conventional cytokine-based treatments for metastatic RCC. Consequently imaging is playing a greater part in the management of such patients. Computed tomography remains the primary imaging modality with other imaging modalities playing a supplementary role. CT is used in the diagnosis and staging of metastatic RCC.
