About this book
This is one of the first books to deal specifically with diagnostic imaging of the entire spectrum of kidney cancers. Both
new and conventional imaging modalities are fully considered. After an introductory chapter on the histopathological
classification of kidney cancers, the advantages and disadvantages of the various imaging modalities used in the
diagnosis and assessment of disease extension are documented. Subsequent chapters offer an exhaustive description
of the radiological features of the different histological subtypes of kidney cancer, with radiological and histological
illustrations and tables. The latest innovations in interventional and minimally invasive procedures are also well covered.
The book benefits from carefully chosen and technically excellent images. Each of the 24 chapters is written by an
internationally acclaimed expert, making this book the most current and complete treatment of the subject available. It
should be of great interest to radiologists, oncologists, and urologists.
