title: [Computed tomographic anatomy of the kidneys and the retroperitoneal space].
abstract: The authors described the anatomy of the kidneys and retroperitoneal space in health on the basis of CT of 90 patients. Five typical levels in CT (ensuring all necessary data on roentgenomorphological traits of the kidneys and retroperitoneal space in the kidney area) were singled out. Some roentgenometric data on kidney cross-sections as well as the quantitative densitometric characterization of the parenchyma of the kidneys, renal sinus and adjacent tissues were presented. X-ray anatomy of the renal fascia, pararenal space and perirenal fatty space of the kidney with different parts of the retroperitoneal space was described.
