CT urography protocol allows to assess a hyperdense signal originating from the lumen itself, caused by the stagnation of contrast agent.

MRI findings are similar to CT, except that on heavily T2-weighted sequences it could be possible to evaluate lumen swelling thanks to fluid stasis which gives back a strong hyperintense signal, so no contrast could be required.

Metastases to Kidney

Metastases to the kidneys are common, with multiple foci and bilateral involvement typical.

Usual metastases to kidney involved melanoma, thyroid carcinoma, liver, colon, lung and breast cancer, and ovarian carcinoma.
