Does [ The observed and chance-corrected agreement of the computed tomographic and histological staging result in renal-cell carcinoma ]?
Good CT staging results are obtained with discrimination between T1 tumors and higher categories, the assessment of venous invasion, the exclusion of adrenal involvement, and the detection of metastatic spread to abdominal organs. Insufficient results are seen with lymphadenopathy staging and the distinction of organ-confined and invasive tumors.
Our data replicate previous associations found between SNPs in the 6q25 locus and BMD(a) at the hip and extend these data to include associations with calcaneal ultrasound parameters and radial volumetric BMD.
