Angiomyolipoma with minimal fat: differentiation from clear cell renal cell carcinoma and papillary renal cell carcinoma by texture analysis on CT images.

Abstract

To retrospectively evaluate the diagnostic performance of texture analysis (TA) for the discrimination of angiomyolipoma (AML) with minimal fat, clear cell renal cell cancer (ccRCC), and papillary renal cell cancer (pRCC) on computed tomography (CT) images and to determine the scanning phase, which contains the strongest discriminative power.
