Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
The development of new imaging techniques and the refinement of established methods in uroradiological imaging is proceeding rapidly. In the last few years several important developments have been implemented in the routine diagnostic evaluation of urological patients.A milestone is the recent advent of multidetector helical computed tomography (CT), enabling the radiologist to provide the clinician with high-quality three-dimensional (3-D) reconstructions of the urological organs. Powerful workstations are an indispensable tool in the post-processing of CT and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)data. Significant advances in imaging were obtained in the fields of oncological imaging (e.g. prostate MRI and spectroscopic imaging), paediatric uroradiology(e.g. MR urography) and the evaluation of stone disease by unenhanced helical CT. |
