Abstract:
Imaging features of metastases to the urinary system may closely mimic primary urinary tract tumors, and differential diagnosis by imaging alone may be problematic or even impossible in some cases. The main purpose of this article was to familiarize radiologists with imaging findings of metastasis to the urinary system on cross-sectional imaging, with an emphasis on abdominal and pelvic computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. In addition, we review the clinical importance and implications of metastases to the urinary tract and provide information on diagnostic work-ups.

Secondary Lymphoid Organs
The spleen is a vital organ in the lymphatic system, nestled in the upper left side of the abdomen. It is composed of two primary regions: the red pulp and the white pulp, each having distinct functions. The red pulp performs a significant role in blood filtration. It efficiently purges the blood of old or damaged red blood cells and...
