C. T. evaluation of renal space occupying lesions.

About 70 patients with suspicion on conventional radiographic examination of a space occupying lesion of the kidney, were also evaluated by C. T. There was no problem to differentiate benign cystic lesions and obstructive hydronephrosis from solid tumors. More difficult however was the differential diagnosis of the different types of renal solid tumors from chronical inflammatory processes. For this reason selective angiography remains imperative in those conditions.

[Study of the liver by computerised tomography. Assessment of one years experience involving 1,480 investigations (author's transl)].

During a period of one year, and in two departments with identical equipment, 1,480 underwent examination of the liver by computerised tomography (C. T.). A critical analysis of the method is made, based upon the diagnostic results obtained as well as the errors and gaps noted. After describing the normal liver, the authors give the "C. T. appearances" of the main hepatic conditions, based upon correlation with macroscopic pathological findings.

[Axial computer tomography in acute and chronic pancreatitis (author's transl)].

The diagnostic value of the whole body computer tomography for evaluation of pancreatic disease is reported. In 64% of the cases with pancreatitis anomalies were detected. In pancreatitis an increase as well as a diminution of the volume of the pancreatic gland can be encountered; both features can be detected by computer tomography. Detection of pancreatic tumors in the initial stage and differentiation from pancreatitis by computer tomography remains difficult.

Echography of suprarenal masses.

Ultrasound is used in evaluation of suprarenal rumors. Results are compared with angiographic and surgical findings. A practical approach is proposed.
