Imaging of the urinary tract: the role of CT and MRI Hiorns MPPediatr Nephrol 2011[Jan]; 26 (1): 59-68Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are increasingly valuable tools for assessing the urinary tract in adults and children. However, their imaging capabilities, while overlapping in some respects, should be considered as complementary, as each technique offers specific advantages and disadvantages both in actual inherent qualities of the technique and in specific patients and with a specific diagnostic question. The use of CT and MRI should therefore be tailored to the patient and the clinical question. For the scope of this article, the advantages and disadvantages of these techniques in children will be considered; different considerations will apply in adult practice.|*Magnetic Resonance Imaging[MESH]|*Tomography, X-Ray Computed[MESH]|*Urography[MESH]|Adult[MESH]|Child[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Ultrasonography[MESH]|Urinary Tract/*diagnostic imaging[MESH]|Urologic Diseases/*diagnosis[MESH] |
