Prevalence of Incidental Findings on Multidetector Computed Tomography in Potential Nephrectomy Donors: A Prospective Observational Study.

Individuals undergoing assessment with multidetector computed tomography for living donor nephrectomy should be counseled on medical, financial, and psychological implications of incidentally detected lesions during the kidney transplant evaluation process.
