Course Description

Renal lesions represent a complex group of masses that frequently require a detailed assessment on MRI. Among their number you’ll find some of the most common extracranial masses found in the pediatric community to life threatening carcinomas.

In this series we’ll explore some of the top indications for renal MRI, the methods for staging these lesions, and take a look at the next steps in patient care. Some of the topics and diagnoses in this course include:

  • Renal Angiomyolipoma
  • Wilms Tumor
  • Renal Cell Carcinoma
  • Horseshoe Kidney
  • Renal Cysts
