To evaluate the multimodality imaging characteristics of papillary renal cell carcinoma across computed tomography, ultrasound, and magnetic resonance imaging to support accurate diagnosis.
Assessed diagnostic features of papillary renal cell carcinoma using computed tomography (CT).
Evaluated the complementary diagnostic performance of ultrasound (US), contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Computed tomography demonstrated marked hypodensity and hypoenhancement, making it the least effective modality for recognizing papillary renal cell carcinoma.
Papillary renal cell carcinoma lesions on CT frequently mimicked spurious non-septate renal cysts.
Ultrasound, contrast-enhanced ultrasound, and MRI provided the critical features required to reach a definitive diagnosis.
