Maximizing clinical information obtained by CT

Urol Clin North Am. 2006 Aug;33(3):287-300. doi: 10.1016/j.ucl.2006.03.007.

Abstract

CT scanning is an integral part of the urologist's practice today. It is the most commonly used imaging modality and the one with which urologists are most familiar. CT urography, CT angiography, and 3D reconstruction enable the urologist to perform comprehensive evaluations of patients who have different urologic diseases, using a single imaging modality. It is thus prudent that urologists become familiar with CT applications, to maximize the clinical information available from them.
