title: Comprehensive evaluation of patients with haematuria on multi-slice computed tomography scanner: protocol design and preliminary observations.
abstract: An imaging protocol with a multi-slice CT scanner that allows comprehensive assessment of patients with haematuria is described. This protocol allows evaluation of the kidneys, ureters and bladder in a single examination using CT. This approach should streamline the diagnostic work-up of patients with haematuria.
