Abstract:
Nephron-sparing surgery is more technically demanding than conventional nephrectomy. The urologist can benefit from modern radiological methods to plan and monitor surgery and to provide post-surgical surveillance. This article describes how 3D volume renderings of CT and MRI data can be useful in planning nephron-sparing surgery, how intraoperative imaging can guide surgery and tumor ablation, and how CT and MRI can be used to monitor for recurrent disease and postoperative complications.
