Characteristics of hypernephromas as seen with ultrasound and computed tomography.
The structure of 20 hypernephromas as seen with ultrasound (US) and computed tomography (CT) were compared. The hypervascular and necrotic areas, as well as the areas of normal tumoral enhancement in CT, were seen as markedly, moderately, or minimally echogenic or had mixed areas of minimal and marked echogenicity in US.
