By employing the three basic diagnostic modalities of uroradiology--intravenous urography, retrograde pyelography, angiography--an accurate radiological diagnosis can be made. Since congenital multicystic disease by definition is a nonfunctioning dysplastic kidney with an atretic or absent ureter and absent renal vasculature, these diagnostic methods are tailored precisely to demonstrate the specific characteristic functional and pathological features of congenital multicystic kidney disease. We find no function on intravenous urography, hypoplastic atretic ureter on retrograde pyelography, and an absent or hypoplastic renal artery indicated on angiography.
通过运用尿路放射学的三种基本诊断方法——静脉肾盂造影、逆行肾盂造影、血管造影——可以做出准确的放射学诊断。由于先天性多囊性疾病根据定义是一个无功能的发育异常肾脏，伴有闭锁或缺失的输尿管以及缺失的肾血管，这些诊断方法经过精确调整，以显示先天性多囊性肾病的特定特征性功能和病理特征。我们发现静脉肾盂造影显示无功能，逆行肾盂造影显示发育不全的闭锁输尿管，血管造影显示肾动脉缺失或发育不全。
