The diagnostic reliability of ultrasound (US) and computed tomography (CT) has been analyzed in 114 patients with renal masses (RM) detected by urography and consequently submitted to both exams.

Abstract
The diagnostic reliability of ultrasound (US) and computed tomography (CT) has been analyzed in 114 patients with renal masses (RM) detected by urography and consequently submitted to both exams. A flowchart is suggested in order to avoid useless examinations; accordingly, the US examination is always justified in the study of RM as opposed to the CT examination (requested only in 50% of RM) and angiography (requested only in 35% of RM).
