Purpose: Current kidney surgery uses less invasive laparoscopic and nephron-sparring procedures. Thus, imaging of the renal vasculature is essential for surgery planning.

Subjects and methods: 85 consecutive patients (mean age 58.6 years; range 43–82) referred for computed tomography (CT) because of a renal tumor enrolled into our retrospective study. 50 examinations were performed with 16×0.75mm collimation and 35 ex…
