PDFAbstract
Objective To compare the application value of ultrasonography and CT in the clinical diagnosis of renal tumors. Methods 72 cases of inpatients with renal tumors admitted into the hospital from January 2013 to December 2014 were studied and were examined by ultrasonography and CT examination to make the imaging characteristics of the two examinations clear and to compare the diagnostic accuracy. Results The accuracy rate of ultrasonic diagnosis was 88.9% (64/72) while of CT was 90.3% (65/72) and the difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusion Ultrasonography can be taken as the preferred inspection method for renal tumors to make their size, location, source and the erosion of the surrounding tissue clear. When the tumor boundary is not clear and the surrounding tissue infiltration and renal vein tumor thrombus formation cannot be determined, it can be combined with CT examination to improve the coincidence rate of diagnosis and to provide guidance for the improvement of operation and the prognosis.
