Preoperative Computed Tomography Assessment for Perinephric Fat Invasion: Comparison With Pathological Staging

Conclusions: Computed tomography does not seem to reliably predict PNF invasion. However, PN soft-tissue stranding was shown to be the only significant factor for predicting PNF invasion, which showed good accuracy with high sensitivity and high specificity in tumors 4 cm or less.
