| Popis: | One of the consequences of the growing use of diagnostic imaging techniques is the notable growth in the detection of small renal masses presumably corresponding to localized tumors that are potentially curable with surgical treatment. When faced with the finding of a small renal mass, radiologists must determine whether it is benign or malignant, and if it is malignant, what subtype it belong to, and whether it should be managed with surgical treatment, with ablative techniques, or with watchful waiting with active surveillance. Small renal masses are now a clinical entity that require management different from the approaches used for classical renal cell carcinomas. In this scenario, radiologists are key because they are involved in all aspects of the management of these tumors, including in their diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up. |
