Two main sections deal with imaging and intervention including excretary urography, ultrasonography, nuclear medicine, computed tomography and NMR. Specific chapters address radiation, contrast media, lymphography, angiography, and neonatal and pediatric uroradiology. The therapy section considers percutaneous access to the kidney and treatment options currently available (nephrostomy, stents, endopyelotomy, balloon angioplasty, and embolotherapy).
