Figure 5. Computed tomography (CT) images of an acquired cystic disease-associated renal cell carcinoma in the 67-year-old man in Case Report 2. A left renal mass is seen filling the left renal pelvis with poor to slight enhancement on dynamic CT (A–D). For the region of interest of a part of the lesion, the CT value of each phase was measured. (A) Plane phase (57 Hounsfield units [HUs]). (B) Corticomedullary phase (92 HUs) (C) Nephrographic phase (77 HUs). (D) Early excretory phase (70 HUs).
