Overview

Abdominal CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of renal oncocytoma. Findings on CT scan suggestive ofrenal oncocytoma include solid renal lesion, central scar (stellate scar), hypervascularity, hypodenseity ( most of the time), and homogenous enhancements.

CT scan

Abdominal CT scan may be helpful in the diagnosis of renal oncocytoma. Findings on CT scan suggestive of renal oncocytoma include:

• Solid renal lesion
• Central scar (stellate scar)
• Hypervascularity
• Hypodenseity ( most of the time)
• Homogenous enhancements

Note: None of these characteristics can differentiate between renal oncocytoma and RCC.
