[Correlations between nephrotomography and arteriography in the diagnosis of renal mass lesions (author's transl)].

A series of 325 patients with renal mass lesions were examined by means nephrotomography during the years 1973-76; 85 of them (26%) underwent angiographic investigations. The basic findings observed with nephrotomography are described followed by the criteria which have suggested the necessity of the arteriographic examination. The analysis of the correlations between the two methods, shows the criteria which may limit the use of renal arteriography.
