Abstract:
We report three cases of bladder cancer in which contrast enhanced computed tomography (CT) demonstrated minimally enlarged lymph nodes. These showed uniform uptake of contrast medium to a similar degree as adjacent venous structures, making the distinction between vessels and lymph nodes difficult. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination resolved the problem in two of the three patients.
