所有执业放射科医生都清楚地看到，肾肿瘤被发现得更早，频率也更高，文献中也有很好的记载。在我所在机构的一项研究中，20世纪80年代使用高分辨率CT和US在5年内发现和切除的小(3.0厘米或更小)肾脏肿瘤的数量比这些技术出现之前的20世纪70年代的类似时期增加了五倍[1]。许多其他已发表的研究也显示了这种早期发现和诊断这些小肿瘤的现象(2-4)。这被认为是两个主要因素造成的。可能更重要的因素是
That renal neoplasms have been detected earlier and with increased frequency is evident to all practicing radiologists and is well documented in the literature. In a study from my institution there was a fivefold increase in the number of small(3.0 cm or smaller) renal neoplasms detected and removed in a 5-year period in the 1980s with the use of high-resolution CT and US, compared with a similar period in the 1970s before these techniques became available (1). Many other published studies also show this phenomenon of early detection and diagnosis of these small tumors (2-4). This is thought to be due to two major factors. Probably the more important factor is that
