How is kidney cancer diagnosed

summary

In the first half of this year, I had some physical problems. At that time, I felt that I was weak and depressed, and I didn't want to eat. It was found out that I had renal cancer. The hospital said that surgery alone could not cure renal cancer, so I had to combine chemotherapy and radiotherapy for comprehensive treatment, but the cost was relatively high. Now let's share about how to diagnose renal cancer.

How is kidney cancer diagnosed

Method 1: routine examination of blood, urine and stool, urine cytology, ESR, blood biochemistry, such as determination of liver function, blood glucose, blood calcium, alkaline phosphate value, chest fluoroscopy or X-ray, etc. should be performed in general diagnosis patients.

Method 2: B-ultrasound examination, small renal tumor can be no change, only the local part of the renal rim slightly down, larger tumors can be seen in the renal rim enlargement, renal structural disorders, echo uneven, low echo. When there is liquefaction, hemorrhage and necrosis, irregular anechoic dark areas can be seen.

Method 3: before intravenous urography, abdominal plain film was taken to exclude positive calculus shadow and calcification spot. During intravenous urography, contrast agent such as meglumine diatrizoate was injected first. After 5 minutes, renal parenchyma, renal pelvis and ureter were successively developed. If there was tumor, the contrast agent showed filling defect and stenosis.

matters needing attention

After kidney cancer surgery, we need to fast for about two days. In the recovery period, renal cancer patients should pay attention to maintain a reasonable diet, and appropriate exercise. Family members should encourage patients to eat high protein, high calorie, high vitamin diet, and avoid stimulating food, especially pepper. In addition, patients should actively exercise, relax and improve immunity.
