Iodine concentration assessed with dual-energy CT represents a useful tool for non-invasive differentiation between papillary and clear cell subtypes of renal cell carcinoma

    A recent work from a German group demonstrated that dual-energy CT with iodine concentration measurement may provide an important help for differential diagnosis between clear cell and papillary renal cell carcinoma. This parameter has shown to be related to microvascular density values assessed with biopsy.
