It is time for a change. CEUS is an established method that should be much more actively included in renal cyst monitoring strategies. This review compares the accuracies, strengths, and weaknesses of CEUS, CECT, and MRI in the classification of renal cysts. In order to avoid overstaging by CEUS, a further differentiation of classes IIF, III, and IV is required. A further development in the refinement of the CEUS-Bosniak classification aims to integrate CEUS more closely into the monitoring of renal cysts and to develop new and complex monitoring algorithms.
是时候做出改变了。对比增强超声(CEUS)作为一种成熟的技术,应更积极地纳入肾囊肿监测策略中。本综述比较了CEUS、对比增强计算机断层扫描(CECT)和磁共振成像(MRI)在肾囊肿分类中的准确性、优势及局限性。为避免CEUS对囊肿分期过高,需对IIF、III和IV类囊肿进行进一步区分。CEUS-Bosniak分类系统的进一步完善,旨在将CEUS更紧密地整合到肾囊肿的监测中,并开发出新颖且复杂的监测算法。
