Image-Guided Ablation of Renal Tumours - Diagnosis

Laboratory tests can sometimes give the first hint that there may be a kidney problem but kidney cancers are generally diagnosed on imaging and biopsy.

Types of imaging tests include ultrasound (US), computer tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Biopsy can be performed either via a needle under image guidance or during surgery when the whole tumour is removed.
