Summary
Intraoperative sonography successfully located non-palpable renal tumors in two patients undergoing surgery for kidney cancer. This imaging technique aids in precise tumor localization for solitary kidney procedures.
Area of Science:
- Urology
- Surgical Oncology
- Medical Imaging
Background:
- Advancements in imaging technologies have improved early detection and treatment of renal tumors.
- Surgical management of renal tumors, especially in solitary kidneys, requires precise localization.
