Small renal pelvic carcinomas: value of epinephrine magnification angiography.
We studied 3 cases of small renal pelvic transitional cell carcinoma with 2-fold direct serial magnification renal angiography in conjunction with epinephrine pharmacoangiography. In 2 cases we found that this technique resulted in visualizing abnormal vessels that were not apparent on routine magnification angiograms.
