Overview
an MRI may be used to diagnose and for follow-up of renal cell carcinoma.
MRI
Similar to CT, an MRI may be used to diagnose and for follow-up of renal cell carcinoma. Due to the use of IV gadolinium in MRI, the risk of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) must always be considered.[1] It is a rare condition that often has cutaneous manifestations, but may affect any organ. Risk factors for development of NSF are as follows[1]:
- High dose of gadolinium-based contrast
- Acute and chronic renal failure
- Vascular injury
Patient Profile | Use of MRI | Evidence Strength |
Low Risk Patient (pT1, N0, Nx) | Baseline abdominal MRI (or CT) for nephron sparing surgery and CT (or US or MRI) for radical nephrectomy within 3-12 months following renal surgery Additional MRI (or US or CT) may be performed in patients following radical nephrectomy if initial post-op baseline image is negative |
Expert opinion C |
Moderate to High Risk Patients (pT2-4N0 Nx or any stage N+) | Baseline chest and abdominal MRI (or CT) within 3-6 months following surgery with continued imaging (US, CXR, CT, or MRI) every 6 months for at least 3 years and annually thereafter to 5 years. Site specific imaging is warranted by clinical symptoms suggestive of recurrence or metastatic spread. Imaging (US, CXR, CT, or MRI) beyond 5 years may be performed at the discretion of the clinician | C |
Active surveillance | Cross-sectional abdominal scanning (CT or MRI) within 6 months of active surveillance initiation to establish a growth rate. Further imaging is recommended at least annually thereafter | C |
Ablation | Patients undergo cross-sectional CT or MRI with and without IV contrast unless contraindicated at 3 and 6 months following ablative therapy to assess treatment success. Annual abdominal CT or MRI should follow for 5 years. Individual MRI (or CT) beyond 5 years is based on individual patient risk factors | C |
