title: [Statistical analysis of renal tumours with infants].
abstract: By using medical imaging a diagnosis for a patient is to be given. The shape of three-dimensional medical relevant objects in the human body is the basis for an accurate diagnosis. Based on the correct diagnosis, the appropriate therapy can be decided. In the following study the shape of renal tumours is explored by the mathematical method of shape analysis and by the test of Ziezold (1994). There are n=24 patients whose frontal view records are available. The possibility of classification can be presented only in an exploratory manner, due to the low case numbers of patients.
