Popis: CT urography and virtual endoscopy images are generated from dedicated multislice helical CT data sets and various three-dimensional reconstruction techniques. These imaging techniques can provide external and endoscopic images of the urinary tract and also provide high spatial resolution images helping overcome some of the limitations of intravenous urography and ultrasound. This pictorial review presents clinical applications of CT urography and virtual endoscopy in various urinary tract abnormalities.
