[The information value of NMR tomography in the diagnosis of a giant kidney cyst].
The authors describe a case of a giant cyst of the right kidney (10 x 10 x 11 cm). The diagnosis was made with the aid of the current method of tomographic diagnosis--NMR tomography. It has been shown that information provided by the method supplements in many respects the data obtained by conventional methods of examination--radionuclide scanning, ultrasound studies, excretory urography and so forth. The merits and shortcomings of NMR tomography are provided. Differential diagnosis of cystic derangement of the kidneys carried out with the aid of NMR tomography is reviewed.
