title: [Computerized tomography in the complex diagnosis of space-occupying formations in the kidneys].
abstract: A computer tomography study of 10 cases of suspected nodulation in kidneys was carried out. The method proved effective in the identification and differential diagnosis of cysts and tumors in the kidney. Tumors were detected in 40 cases, polycystosis -- in 10 patients. Out of 10 cases, renal polycystosis and clinically -- implicit polycystosis of the liver were revealed in 4 patients. Computer tomography should be carried out at the beginning of examination because it may often save the trouble of using more complicated procedures. Application of computer tomography provides fresh means of differential diagnosis of nodulation in the kidney.
