Abstract

In this paper, we describe our clinical evaluation of the diagnostic accuracy of the renal mass diagnostic system (RMDS) and of seven physicians. To investigate the value of intravenous urography (IVU) and/or retrograde urography (RU) in diagnosing renal parenchymal tumors and tumors of the renal pelvis, RMDS and the seven physicians were tested with and without the information regarding IVU/RU at two different times. From this study we believe that RMDS can help residents in making more accurate presurgical renal mass diagnosis, and may eliminate the need for IVU/RU in the diagnosing process for a specific group of patients.

摘要

在本文中，我们描述了我们对肾脏肿块诊断系统（RMDS）和七位医生诊断准确性的临床评估。为了研究静脉肾盂造影（IVU）和/或逆行肾盂造影（RU）在诊断肾实质肿瘤和肾盂肿瘤中的价值，在两个不同时间，分别在有和没有IVU/RU信息的情况下对RMDS和七位医生进行了测试。通过这项研究，我们认为RMDS可以帮助住院医生在术前对肾脏肿块做出更准确的诊断，并且对于特定患者群体在诊断过程中可能无需进行IVU/RU检查。
